JOHN DAY — 1188 owner Shannon Adair has been cleared of any wrongdoing pertaining to her purchase of a 2.8 acre lot in the city of John Day’s Innovation Gateway following a 5-4 vote at the Friday, Jan. 5 Oregon State Ethics Commission meeting.
Adair had been under investigation by the ethics commission for over a year due to a complaint filed by community member Bob Pereria accusing Adair of using her position as a city councilor to enrich herself as well as accusations she’d failed to declare a conflict of interest when the council was discussing the sale of the property to her. Adair purchased the lot for $122,840 with the intention of forming a new venture, 1188 Destinations, that will feature a distillery, restaurant, cabins for overnight lodging and a small outdoor pavilion that could host live music.
The ethics commission first discussed the accusation that Adair used her position as a member of John Day’s city council to enrich herself with the purchase
