The Ethics Advisory Commission dismissed an anonymous complaint against District 14 City Plan Commissioner Wayne Garcia at a hearing this week.
The complaint alleged several violations of the city’s code of ethics in regards to a business deal he signed onto with two opponents of a zoning case in his district.
Garcia failed to evaluate a zoning change application in a timely manner and support or deny such development “following consistent standards fairly and uniformly applied to all applicants in District 14,” according to the complaint. This created unwarranted expense for the city and an appearance of a conflict of interest that reflects imprudence and poor judgment, the complaint claimed.
