SHEILA A. MATHEWS :::
The Spalding County Ethics Review Panel has determined Commissioner Don Hawbaker did not violate the county’s code of ethics.
Hawbaker faced complaints by three individuals who alleged he violated the code in social media discussions.
The Ethics Review Panel unanimously voted in favor of Hawbaker in each of the three complaints.
The GRIP will later report fully on this as well as the ethics hearing held for Commissioner Gwen Flowers-Taylor.
