The commission moved to handle the violation administratively and voted 3-0 to refer the case for review to a local district attorney.
The Alabama Ethics Commission ruled Wednesday that there was cause to hold that Mayor Tab Bowling committed a “minor violation” of the Alabama Ethics Act when he used the Aquadome Recreation Center for a private pickleball game when it was closed to the public.
In a text message to The Decatur Daily on Thursday, Bowling said, “I used a public facility that was closed to the public. It was a recreation center. I’m comfortable with the Commission’s decision.” “My wife ran into two fellows and one of them made the comment, ‘It’s really good to have a friend with connections,’” Faruqui said.
Bowling responds, “Yes sir I did. No city funds were used. The gym lights were on, didn’t touch the HVAC controls and no personnel was involved. I turned the lights upon exiting.”
