Ethics Commission

Ethical Government is Everyone's Responsibility

Any person with knowledge of a Pierce County Ethics Code violation by a county employee, or any person dealing with Pierce County government, may file a complaint with the Pierce County Ethics Commission.

It is the Commission's duty to examine questionable behavior, as defined by the Pierce County Ethics Code, and to resolve complaints.

Pierce County's Ethics Commission exists as a non-biased resource for the community and can provide information and solutions.
