The DeKalb County Board of Ethics unanimously dismissed complaints Tuesday against commissioners Kathie Gannon and Jeff Rader.
The board heard the results of preliminary investigations into the charges, then found there wasn’t probable cause to move forward with the cases.
Gannon had been accused of improperly using taxpayer money to hire an attorney to appeal a zoning decision. Her office also allegedly used government funds to buy gift cards.
The board’s investigator, attorney Robert Browning, said he found that Gannon’s spending was for county business. The complaint against Gannon came from Lithonia resident Monica Parrott, who didn’t attend Tuesday’s meeting and wasn’t reachable by Browning.
