Re: #80 -38 -C (1 -5)
Dear Mr. Dodds:
STATE ETHICS COMMISSION
308 FINANCE BUILDING
HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA 17120
ORDER OF THE COMMISSION
June 16, 1981
No. 44
#80 -38 -C (1 -5)
On December 8, 1980, your firm was informed that the
State Ethics Commission had received a complaint regarding
possible violations of Act 170 of 1978. The Commission has
now completed its investigation into these allegations and
finds no violation of Act 170.
Allegation: There was a conflict of interest in your firm's
development of the township comprehensive plan.
Conclusion: All activities took place prior to January 1,
1979., the effective date of the Ethics Act, and are not
within the jurisdiction of the Ethics Act. In any event,
there was also no evidence that actions taken during the
course of development of the plan or the subsequent instal-
lation of the sewage system would constitute a violation of
Act 170.
All files in this case will remain confidential.
However, this Order is final and will become available as a
public document within 15 days unless you file documentation
with the Commission which justifies reconsideration and /or
challenges pertinent factual findings made.
Mr. Lawrence R. Dodds
