Description

The complaint alleged may have violated RCW 42.17A.555 by misusing public facilities, specifically wearing a city council pin in political advertising. 

Alvarez stated the pins do not identify him as a city council member and added “Anyone who wants one can get one if they ask, and that is probably how the person who gave me one got theirs.” 

Based on this information, the PDC finds no further action is warranted and has dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
