CLNCC Monthly ZOOM Meeting - With Kathleen Davies On Benefit Of An Inspector General For DE, 7PM March 16th

CLNCC Monthly Meeting
7 p.m. Tuesday, March 16th
ZOOM Program

Two great presentations are planned for our March meeting so please share the agenda and zoom link with your civic groups and friends.

Update: Sandy Spence is giving the LWVDE Power Point on Redistricting. League members will be attending to answer any questions we may have. 

Kathleen Davies is our Guest Speaker on Inspector Generals..Through sharing her past experience working with state and federat IGs,  she will discuss the potential benefit for Delaware in giving legislators a way to request validation of numbers they want to rely on, getting independent investigations, and having an office that can work with federal investigators for federal prosecution. She notes our state's lack of Attorney General independence and that our Auditor of Accounts is no longer focusing on prosecutorial work or financial audits where all of the standard reports are now contracted out.

Kathleen Davies worked under AOA Tom Wagner and ran in the 2018 primary as a Democratic candidate for that office. She earned a bachelor's degree in professional accountancy from Pennsylvania State University. Davies' career experience includes working as a CPA, Certified Fraud Examiner, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Government Audit Professional, and Certified Government Financial Manager in the field of state government auditing. [https://ballotpedia.org/Kathleen_Davies]

Also: Updates on the General Assembly, Offshore Wind, and the New Jersey LNG facility.

And BIG NEWS: CIVIC UMBRELLA MEETINGS ARE BACK!

Although I got a flat NO from County Executive Meyer via Kenny Dunn email last week saying Meyer was not interested in resuming Civic Umbrella Meetings last held in 2019, Council President Karen Hartley-Nagle has agreed to begin holding these meetings through NCC Council ZOOM starting in late March. 

UPDATED: These meetings will continue to be held monthly (or as practicable) on Mondays at 5:30pm on off-council weeks. The council president will be issuing a meeting notice soon to all of the prior attendee organizations and individuals so look for the email invitation! 

If your organization has updated officers and contact information, please let me know and /or send the updates directly to: karen.hartley-nagle@newcastlede.gov
