DeKalb ethics board to meet

DeKalb County’s ethics board will meet March 7 to vote on ending its suspended status.

The 7-member board recently completed training and is at full membership, two hurdles that kept it from conducting regular meetings last year.

The special grand jury investigating allegations of corruption in DeKalb recommended this summer the board be overhauled or replaced to improve internal watchdog efforts in the county.
