LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – The Nevada Commission on Ethics approved two stipulated agreements including fines as part of their June meeting.
According to a media release from the commission, the separate cases involved Catherine Hall, a former Chair of the Mineral County Commission, and John Bartlett, a former Compliance Investigator for the Nevada State Contractors Board.
In the first case, Hall failed to comply with ethics statutes by making alcohol and food purchases for her private businesses using a County-issued credit card. The commission said that Hall has paid back the purchases, agreed to pay a $1,000 fine to the commission and take Ethics Law training if she returns to public service.
In the second case, Bartlett used confidential information and knowledge obtained through public service to benefit his private interests after joining a private sector company similar to those he regulated. Bartlett has agreed to pay a $1,500 fine for the misuse of non-public information and agreed to take Ethics Law training if he returns to public service.
The next meeting of the Commission will be August 21 in Reno.
