BRACK: Commission takes unusual action of reprimanding a member

By Elliott Brack  |  Gwinnett County Commission took an unusual move at its November 14 meeting. It reprimanded one of its own members, County Commissioner Kirkland Carden.  Even more interestingly, the commission voted 4-0 on the reprimand in spite of an Ethics Panel recommendation that the commission take no action on the complaint against Carden.
