Ethical and Legal Obligations of the Commissioner

The commission meeting is an appropriate time and place to address any issues that may be of concern regarding commission ethics. It is far better to try to anticipate problems and avoid them rather than to try to solve them once they occur. A goal of commissioners should be to avoid not only impropriety itself, but also the appearance of impropriety. All commission members should feel free to call the chairperson at any time to ask questions.
