Description

The Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) has completed its review of the complaint Glen Morgan filed on October 30, 2019. The complaint alleged that Anthony Oddo (Respondent), a Candidate for City Council Member for City of Bainbridge Island may have violated RCW 42.17A.240 for failure to accurately and completely file Summary Full Campaign Contribution and Expenditure reports (C-4 reports), disclosing details of expenditures undertaken by the Campaign.

PDC staff reviewed the allegations; the applicable statutes, rules, and reporting requirements; the response provided by the Respondent; the applicable PDC reports filed by Respondent; and queried the Respondent’s data in the PDC contribution and expenditure database, to determine whether the record supports a finding of one or more violations.

Based on our findings staff has determined that, in this instance, failure to file complete and accurate expenditure details on C-4 reports does not amount to a violation that warrants further investigation.

PDC staff is reminding Anthony Oddo about the importance of the complete and accurate disclosure of all expenditure activities, and the complete and accurate filings of all future PDC reports in accordance with the statutes and rules.

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