WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.340
 And we're here for a special call panel meeting of the Board of Ethics.

00:00:10.340 --> 00:00:14.400
 Today is Monday, October 26, 2020.

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:17.960
 It is 5 o'clock or 5.01 p.m.

00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:24.380
 This meeting, the panel is going to consist of myself, Ronnie Mohair, and Rob Brainer.

00:00:24.380 --> 00:00:28.560
 Also present is Ian Stoosloff.

00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:30.680
 He is present at the meeting as well.

00:00:30.680 --> 00:00:36.680
 We are going to consider ethics complaint number 20-001, which was filed on October

00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:52.680
 15th of 2020, concerning alleged violations of ethics ordinance section 2-273.

00:00:52.680 --> 00:00:56.200
 And with that, I think we'll start the meeting.

00:00:56.200 --> 00:01:03.640
 Yes, I think we need to select a presiding officer for the meeting.

00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:18.200
 Madison or Madame Chair or Charla, I move that you be the chair of the hearing panel.

00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:21.380
 I second the motion.

00:01:21.380 --> 00:01:27.440
 All right, do we have a vote?

00:01:27.440 --> 00:01:31.000
 All in favor, aye.

00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:32.000
 Aye.

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:33.000
 No nays.

00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:39.680
 So I'll lead the meeting.

00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:43.280
 So Charla, would it be helpful if I give kind of some background on this?

00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:44.280
 Absolutely.

00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:45.280
 Okay.

00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:53.920
 So like you just said, we received an ethics complaint admitted by Mr. Scott Campbell against

00:01:53.920 --> 00:02:03.900
 Council Member Deb Armenter on October 15th.

00:02:03.900 --> 00:02:10.400
 So in accordance with the ordinance, this panel is called to evaluate the complaint

00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:16.440
 on its face to determine if it is actionable or baseless.

00:02:16.440 --> 00:02:22.120
 And actionable means that the allegations and evidence contained in the complaint, if

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:28.520
 true, would constitute an actual violation of the ordinance, whereas a baseless complaint

00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:34.000
 is that the allegations, if true, would not actually be, even if they were true, they

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.320
 would not be a violation of the ethics ordinance.

00:02:36.320 --> 00:02:39.160
 So that's what's up to the panel today.

00:02:39.160 --> 00:02:44.760
 So it's not even really to consider if there's evidence, just if on the face of the complaint,

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:50.840
 or it would be a violation.

00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:55.640
 So would you like me to like pull up the complaint or what would be helpful?

00:02:55.640 --> 00:03:09.120
 I do have it in front of me, which the complaint basically is complaining about at the dinner

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:15.640
 and city council afternoon work session beginning at 1130 on October 5th, 2020.

00:03:15.640 --> 00:03:19.280
 Council person Deb Armenter actively campaigned for re-election.

00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:24.480
 Do I need to read the whole, I can read the whole thing if you'd like.

00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:27.480
 I think you can, I don't know if you need to.

00:03:27.480 --> 00:03:30.800
 Okay, I mean, that's basically what we're here for.

00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:38.240
 He talks about the unethical behavior, that's the words in the complaint, begins at about

00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:44.200
 39.50 in the video and continues until Mayor Watts says stop.

00:03:44.200 --> 00:03:47.040
 So that's basically what we're doing.

00:03:47.040 --> 00:03:55.200
 And I mean, I'm happy to start if that's okay with you, Ronnie and Rob.

00:03:55.200 --> 00:04:15.360
 Okay, so in 2-273, you know, okay, the only thing that I saw with regard to this complaint

00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:29.120
 that would even remotely to me be for any for discussion would be the 2-273G.

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:36.820
 And I'm just saying that as part of the 2-273, that's the only section I saw that really

00:04:36.820 --> 00:04:42.400
 to even look at with regard to this complaint, if that makes sense.

00:04:42.400 --> 00:04:46.800
 So I don't know if y'all had any thoughts or none of it applies.

00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:49.600
 So I'm going to open it up to y'all.

00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:54.320
 If I may ask, are you referring to what I think what I have is abuse of resources?

00:04:54.320 --> 00:05:01.880
 Yes, that's the only thing in 2-273 that I saw it just in my opinion would even remotely

00:05:01.880 --> 00:05:03.120
 be applicable.

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:09.560
 So but I want to know if y'all see something else that since we're supposed to look at

00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:19.840
 actionable or baseless, I read it several times, I did not see anything that that complaint

00:05:19.840 --> 00:05:25.320
 could even fall under as being actionable or baseless.

00:05:25.320 --> 00:05:32.520
 Well, after looking at the video, and I read the complaint and looked at the video and

00:05:32.520 --> 00:05:44.040
 I had a problem putting it together based on the time factor.

00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:52.920
 When she held up the card, the card that had her name on it, when she held that card up

00:05:52.920 --> 00:06:03.280
 and the time from that point to the time she actually put it down, she actually never once

00:06:03.280 --> 00:06:09.920
 she never really mentioned the card per se, but she, I think she started to allude to

00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:15.160
 it and what was on it but was now correct me if I'm wrong, she was about to allude

00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:21.480
 to what was on the on the card or what it was for, but she was stopped.

00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:24.000
 The mayor stopped her.

00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:31.040
 So I just have a problem with that timing to say that that was a conflict because of

00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:45.760
 the timing wasn't enough to justify anything because I just I just it was so sure I mean

00:06:45.760 --> 00:06:52.200
 it was a matter of 30-45 seconds before she put the card down, I could be wrong on that,

00:06:52.200 --> 00:07:02.200
 but I agree that that time factor I think Madison I just want to point out I believe

00:07:02.200 --> 00:07:07.480
 in Ian please if you have a different opinion correct me, but the purpose of the preliminary

00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:12.880
 assessment is not really to evaluate the evidence and I know that I included the link to the

00:07:12.880 --> 00:07:20.400
 video but I just want to point that out it's it's more to evaluate if the complaint on

00:07:20.400 --> 00:07:26.000
 its face would be if it was true regardless of the evidence I believe in please correct

00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:32.480
 me if I'm wrong, would actually be a violation of the ordinance or not.

00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:38.760
 Madison you're correct that is the issue before you today it's whether the allegations and

00:07:38.760 --> 00:07:44.680
 the evidence that are complained in the complaint if they were true would that constitute a

00:07:44.680 --> 00:08:00.640
 violation and so I think the that specific provision in 2-273 subsection G abusive resources

00:08:00.640 --> 00:08:10.580
 that that provision would be at issue when there's an allegation as there is here that

00:08:10.580 --> 00:08:18.960
 a an officer of the city used resources belonging to the city for personal purposes or what

00:08:18.960 --> 00:08:28.240
 the what the code says is that that includes political purposes.

00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:34.080
 Yes Rob so if I may ask Ian the way you had phrased that in the complaint it did spell

00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:43.560
 out the video in the specific time so would it would it have been improper for us to go

00:08:43.560 --> 00:08:49.560
 and review to view that video then and since it was part of the complaint or do we just

00:08:49.560 --> 00:08:58.820
 take it as face value that it was at 39 and 50 seconds of the video.

00:08:58.820 --> 00:09:08.760
 I think it is certainly relevant to your review you're looking at at the at the video that

00:09:08.760 --> 00:09:19.520
 was included now I I should point out that under that in your determination you can't

00:09:19.520 --> 00:09:26.180
 you're not allowed to look at information that is outside the complaint itself and making

00:09:26.180 --> 00:09:33.360
 a determination of whether the allegations are actionable or baseless the video is even

00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:38.200
 though it's not included in the complaint itself I think you read that broadly it's

00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:44.360
 included it's incorporated just by reference and that's information that's available but

00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:51.200
 that is certainly something that you can you can look at but it's it's not so much a an

00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:57.680
 evaluation of a complaint on the merits but just whether it kind of crawled it's sort

00:09:57.680 --> 00:10:04.240
 of a threshold question of whether assuming all of the allegations are true would that

00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:09.480
 constitute a violation. Thank you.

00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:20.140
 And if I can ask a question in in the complaint he states in armatures behavior is unethical

00:10:20.140 --> 00:10:27.880
 for several reasons including conflict of interest comma ie and then he says using an

00:10:27.880 --> 00:10:32.500
 official posted meeting of the Denton City Council to campaign for re-election during

00:10:32.500 --> 00:10:39.760
 an active campaign is does that matter I mean I couldn't find anything in two dash two seven

00:10:39.760 --> 00:10:43.800
 three like I said earlier except for that G that that would be applicable so I just

00:10:43.800 --> 00:10:49.800
 didn't know if that was referring to some other number I mean I didn't see that it did

00:10:49.800 --> 00:11:02.560
 but I just don't want to miss anything. You mean the weather another another subsection

00:11:02.560 --> 00:11:17.160
 and two dash two seven three or even two dash two. Yeah I don't think there's another subsection

00:11:17.160 --> 00:11:24.640
 that would be relevant two dash two seven three it includes the definition of conflicting

00:11:24.640 --> 00:11:34.240
 interest and the complaint does specifically alleged there is a I think it uses that term

00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:46.320
 conflict of interest so that so it's certainly two dash two seven three a is relevant but

00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:52.080
 just reviewing some of the other provisions in two dash two seven three I think of section

00:11:52.080 --> 00:12:02.480
 G abuse of resources is the only one that that would reasonably pertain to the allegations

00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:08.440
 and I agree with that I just wanted to be sure just in looking at this complaint that

00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:16.000
 it was all considered so based on the face of the complaint if that was true would it

00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:28.120
 violate two dash two seven three G and Ronnie and Rob y'all jump in here at any time I just

00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:41.880
 if y'all see something else in that two dash two seven three please let us know

00:12:41.880 --> 00:12:48.400
 the question I have is I don't see anything somebody could point something else out to

00:12:48.400 --> 00:12:58.840
 me I don't it the complaint then is under the two two point two seven three but nothing

00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:06.240
 else as to any sub sections of that so it is it so it's with the information that we

00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:13.880
 have it is our responsibility then to look at all of that section to see if anything

00:13:13.880 --> 00:13:19.960
 may have been violated is that correct ma'am chair yes and I was saying I did that and

00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:28.620
 I could only find G that would even be remotely applicable here yes and I didn't even have

00:13:28.620 --> 00:13:35.240
 an if you know maybe this one or maybe that one that's the only one that I saw so it

00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:46.680
 could possibly be applicable I mean on the complaint it if true would

00:13:46.680 --> 00:14:02.640
 it be a violation I mean he says that she actively campaigned for reelection so she

00:14:02.640 --> 00:14:08.720
 actively campaigned for reelection then I think that sends us to two dash two seven

00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:22.200
 three G to look at it I'm with Ronnie I saw I mean I saw the video too it was sent and

00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:28.720
 I wanted to make sure I reviewed everything but I understand what Mr. Stoosloff Stoosloff

00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:34.200
 is saying that we're supposed to just look at the complaint and no evidence or anything

00:14:34.200 --> 00:14:50.880
 outside of that so so at this point what are your wishes ma'am chair what are y'all thoughts

00:14:50.880 --> 00:14:59.120
 about looking at that complaint just on its face just there and then looking at article

00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:08.800
 G if that would even apply to the complaint to me if it doesn't then me it would be baseless

00:15:08.800 --> 00:15:18.760
 because it wouldn't be a violation of G so I think looking at G closely with what Mr.

00:15:18.760 --> 00:15:26.240
 Campbell put in his complaint is I think what we're being asked to do yes I'd have to say

00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:32.080
 that it looks like that Mr. Campbell because of the first paragraph felt it was important

00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:40.640
 for the video to be seen to give support to his next paragraph because on the face of

00:15:40.640 --> 00:15:48.000
 it my opinion what he has given us yes it sounds bad but I would tend to agree with

00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:55.840
 both of you I don't see where it fits into this particular G which is maybe the closest

00:15:55.840 --> 00:16:01.440
 one we have I think that's that's why I wanted to ask about the video the importance of it

00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:09.480
 because it must have been important Mr. Campbell but overall and looking at what we have available

00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:22.280
 to justify any action I would agree that that's pardon the pun the bridge too far I agree

00:16:22.280 --> 00:16:33.200
 with everything you just said and if you look at G it talks about facilities personnel equipment

00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:45.600
 software supplies or staff time for private purposes including political purposes except

00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:52.900
 to the extent that citizens have those same resources and you know there is that section

00:16:52.900 --> 00:16:58.720
 two dash two seven one that talks about expectations of any of us that are city officials and you

00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:03.240
 know there's a couple of those to me that would be applicable but those cannot be the

00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:13.620
 basis for a complaint yeah I would hope it was more so that but that's not the basis

00:17:13.620 --> 00:17:20.560
 of a complaint and I'm just saying that for discussion I would yes I would agree I would

00:17:20.560 --> 00:17:25.600
 like to think that the expectations of nothing else could be used as just a reminder to all

00:17:25.600 --> 00:17:33.040
 officials that though it cannot serve as a basis for a complaint nevertheless it's very

00:17:33.040 --> 00:17:40.100
 important as how the public views us as officials and how we should conduct ourselves it's more

00:17:40.100 --> 00:17:48.280
 of a conducting to me procedure on the expectations versus an actual violation somewhere that

00:17:48.280 --> 00:17:55.320
 I truly can't find either yeah it looks like on the expectations that might be see and

00:17:55.320 --> 00:18:04.960
 or d this is just my opinion but I just Ronnie you want to jump in I'm still I'm still at

00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:12.000
 the point of I just don't see where it matches up I I agree unless it's in the expectations

00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:21.040
 which are inapplicable for a complaint I I agree you know I go back to what Rob was saying

00:18:21.040 --> 00:18:30.680
 here about in the complaint he used that that time factor as a way of leading into that

00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:37.400
 second paragraph mm-hmm which would lead us into having to see the video to match that

00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:47.640
 second paragraph up to his time factor because as he puts that in there but attorney here

00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:55.360
 says that we're not supposed to use that correct mr. Ian is that is that what you're saying

00:18:55.360 --> 00:19:01.880
 that you cannot use the video yeah for us for the three of us are you saying that that

00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:10.000
 we can't use that for a well what what I was saying is that and and this is just under

00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:22.320
 application well under the the board's rules this is rule d7 that rule says that a panel's

00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:32.680
 review is limited to the contents of the complaint no extraneous information may be considered

00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:39.360
 and then it goes on and says unless the panel wants to review information to consider whether

00:19:39.360 --> 00:19:45.720
 you were going to make a recommendation that you hold a hearing to determine if it may

00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:54.960
 be frivolous which is a different different question so so it really comes down to what

00:19:54.960 --> 00:20:01.320
 under under the board's rules what are the contents of the complaint are the contents

00:20:01.320 --> 00:20:11.840
 of the complaint the video or or not now the the complaint refers to the video but it you

00:20:11.840 --> 00:20:18.440
 know it's it's filed as a you know as a document I think in this case I don't know if it was

00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:28.960
 filed electronically but it refers to the video and it specifies where it can be found

00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:35.640
 and so it's ultimately going to depend on how broadly you're going to read that part

00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:44.040
 of your rules is that part of the contents of the complaint or not and I you know I think

00:20:44.040 --> 00:20:52.560
 I mean ultimately that would be your interpretation of of your rules but that that is a question

00:20:52.560 --> 00:20:57.920
 is is that something that you can be considered that can be considered here because it wasn't

00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:03.800
 included as an actual attachment it was included sort of by reference was it referred to something

00:21:03.800 --> 00:21:10.040
 that exists outside of the document itself but which is nevertheless publicly available

00:21:10.040 --> 00:21:17.720
 well yeah and I think what's odd here is I agree with Ronnie it if we look look at the

00:21:17.720 --> 00:21:25.040
 video and look at what's written there it's you know different for lack of a better word

00:21:25.040 --> 00:21:33.680
 I mean I you know I mean it was there and I mean I looked at it I am having a very hard

00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.640
 time matching that up because I agree with Ronnie it never got there it looked like that's

00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:43.760
 where it was going and Mayor Watts you know conducted to me properly in the meeting not

00:21:43.760 --> 00:21:53.920
 to let that occur and so it didn't but I mean he didn't attach it yes Rob

00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:58.600
 oh no go finish up please no I was just gonna say and it wasn't attached I was just saying

00:21:58.600 --> 00:22:08.880
 that I don't know if he if he let me ask you this and if if he had attached it um well

00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:14.640
 I guess if someone if he had attached the video is that really different than he referred

00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:26.120
 to the video does that make sense

00:22:26.120 --> 00:22:31.200
 it makes sense that there's I think there is a distinction to extending it as part of

00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:40.880
 an attachment or just making a reference to it here on your your the board's rule is that

00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:45.680
 your review is limited to the contents of the complaint so what is the what is the complaint

00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:56.160
 actually contain and it doesn't contain the video itself it includes a reference to it

00:22:56.160 --> 00:23:08.160
 and it's a suggestion of where you can find it so it's not um you know I I think that's

00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:13.840
 that's ultimately a question that you'd have to decide is is that even a does is that part

00:23:13.840 --> 00:23:20.120
 of the contents of the complaint itself when it's just sort of it's just referring to that

00:23:20.120 --> 00:23:25.920
 video and specifying that it can specifying where it can be found it can be found on the

00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:29.520
 CDBenton website and you have to take you have to take some additional steps to find

00:23:29.520 --> 00:23:37.720
 it you know if I look at the if it is part of it if I look at the complaint that first

00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:43.000
 sentence I believe and I scrolled down to the statute but the the ordinance I'm sorry

00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:50.320
 is that it makes a statement but then when you look at the video he referred to I'm not

00:23:50.320 --> 00:23:58.960
 seeing that that occurred so if we're referring I mean that's this is my opinion so it looked

00:23:58.960 --> 00:24:11.600
 like it was cut off to me so trying doesn't mean doing it in my opinion oh yes Rob and

00:24:11.600 --> 00:24:18.400
 I appreciate that and the dovetail with Ronnie I think and I appreciate Ian's input on this

00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:23.600
 because for us for future hearings but more importantly for the public if you're going

00:24:23.600 --> 00:24:28.160
 to file a complaint it's going to be have to be very thorough for us to be able to look

00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:32.920
 at it according to what I think Ian is saying in that if there is a video or if there are

00:24:32.920 --> 00:24:38.360
 pictures necessary they should be part of the complaint as well and correct me if I'm

00:24:38.360 --> 00:24:45.160
 wrong Ian but that way we're looking at all this without doing any outside investigation

00:24:45.160 --> 00:24:52.560
 to see if this had merit is that a fair statement Ian that's that's fair and it's really going

00:24:52.560 --> 00:25:00.000
 to come down to how how you want how you understand the contents of the complaint and for the

00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.600
 for documents that exist online is it enough just to include a link to it or does it actually

00:25:07.600 --> 00:25:17.360
 have to be submitted as an attachment you know as a standalone file and this this would

00:25:17.360 --> 00:25:24.920
 this is you could also make the same raise the same question with respect to the postcards

00:25:24.920 --> 00:25:29.520
 because the postcards were not included although they were displayed briefly during the video

00:25:29.520 --> 00:25:37.400
 and should those postcards be included as well if that's going to be part of the allegations

00:25:37.400 --> 00:25:41.000
 that's what I thought we really were discussing with those flyers because that's what was

00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:47.800
 being brandished about so quickly that answers my question thank you madam chair the other

00:25:47.800 --> 00:25:57.320
 thing I was going to say is in two dash two seven three g it makes a list there that's

00:25:57.320 --> 00:26:06.400
 an inclusive list of facilities personnel equipment software supplies or staff time

00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:13.200
 for political purposes private purposes including political purposes so I mean it's a city council

00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:24.960
 meeting I I'm not matching up facility personnel equipment so forgetting all the other I unless

00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:33.080
 it's city facilities the rest of it doesn't apply so

00:26:33.080 --> 00:26:42.600
 I would like to suggest though since if we look at Robert's rules on this if she chairman

00:26:42.600 --> 00:26:50.120
 if councilmember armature was recognized for a specific thing and then pivots to as we

00:26:50.120 --> 00:26:56.220
 are being told a political thing I don't think that's proper because that wasn't the purpose

00:26:56.220 --> 00:27:07.880
 for the recognition to begin with but but that's just a that's just an air of of that

00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:22.000
 particular person but once you see the video when she she pivots it's to the question of

00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:30.640
 what she was talking about maybe no I got you maybe I didn't catch that but once again

00:27:30.640 --> 00:27:40.480
 I think we may be chasing something because I think we're all in agreement madam chair

00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:48.120
 yeah and so if y'all have any more discussion we can have it otherwise I'm ready to call

00:27:48.120 --> 00:28:00.920
 for our move for a vote yes round chair I move for dismissal of case is this correct

00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:10.800
 Madison of case 20-001 as presented to us on this date October 26th that's the correct

00:28:10.800 --> 00:28:19.220
 number and Rob just to confirm we're the motion we're supposed to decide baseless or actionable

00:28:19.220 --> 00:28:23.920
 I think you're saying baseless pardon me yes the whatever correct terminology baseless

00:28:23.920 --> 00:28:31.680
 yes ma'am okay all right all in favor of that motion to vote that it is we have a second

00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:47.200
 oh okay I'm the second I thought she said I was a second she said it's a delay on video

00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:57.360
 sorry second did it y'all not hear that now there we go there's a video delay Ronnie whenever

00:28:57.360 --> 00:29:03.020
 you're talking so that's why we're not responding right away okay yeah there's kind of a freezing

00:29:03.020 --> 00:29:11.340
