reimbursing her until after the fact." Councilmen Randy Dowd and Sam Pennant, both critics of
how Riner-Mizell handled the situation, are relieved to have closure.
"I'm glad there is no criminal or ethics charge to her credit card wrongdoing," said Dowd. "I am
still somewhat surprised by her being untruthful when asked about the incident and all of that is
documented on town tapes."
Pennant said he wasn't completely surprised by the commission's ruling. "I'm not a legal scholar.
I wasn't sure if there was anything there to warrant prosecution. I just thought it was something
we needed to look at," Pennant said. "She was very slow in providing the information we were
trying to get about what happened. It took the Ethics Commission to get it from her." Dowd and
Pennant have filed paperwork to run for mayor in April.
Riner-Mizell said she expects an apology from Pennant and Dowd for the accusations she said
they made about her during council meetings dealing with the credit card issue. "I believe there
were two gentlemen on that council who said they would offer apologies if what they said was
not true. I do expect a public apology," Riner-Mizell said.
