Grand Traverse County Commissioners did not punish Board Member Ron Clous Wednesday.
He faces calls to resign after he pulled out a gun while a constituent spoke at a virtual meeting last month.
The board considered a “resolution of censure” Wednesday that would have punished him.
That tied by a vote of three-to-three, with Clous abstaining and it failed.
Republican Penny Morris was a “no” vote.
“I believe the public already censured them. I’m gonna say no.”
A democrat on the board said now she wants to review the group’s code of ethics to prevent things like this in the future.
