Owen Sound Coun. John Tamming was defiant and unapologetic as council voted unanimously to formally reprimand him, in line with a recommendation from the city’s Integrity Commissioner after it investigated a complaint filed by Deputy Mayor Brian O’Leary.
City council resolved in a 7-0 vote at Monday’s meeting to publicly reprimand Tamming after the Integrity Commissioner concluded he violated council’s code of conduct and engaged in “harassing and bullying” actions towards the deputy mayor through threats of litigation and counter complaints.
Neither Tamming or O’Leary voted on the motion, which was moved by Mayor Ian Boddy.
