A city investigating committee in Keizer, Oregon, concluded that Mayor Cathy Clark violated two council rules and deserves a memo of concern from the full Keizer City Council.

Investigation Details

The Internal Oversight Committee met behind closed doors to receive an investigator’s report, which is considered confidential and not open to the public. The committee voted to find Clark guilty of violating a city council rule regarding decorum among councilors and a council rule about dealing with city staff.

No details of the transgressions were released, as the committee based their decision on the confidential report that identified the violations. The committee took no action against Councilor Dan Kohler, who was also under investigation.

The oversight committee’s recommendations will now go to the full city council, where Clark will be barred from participating in any discussion or vote on the matter.
