San Antonio City Council approves code of conduct, but not without debate
San Antonio City Council voted 8-2 Thursday to approve a new code of conduct for its members after a series of embarrassing incidents involving members of the deliberative body. The code's approval follows council taking three separate censure votes against members over the past 14 months, including last month's against District 10 Councilman Marc Whyte, who faced the reprimand over his recent DWI arrest. The four-page code includes straightforward elements such as a stipulation that council members follow behavioral rules already in place for other city employees and another that calls for disclosing romantic relationships with staff members.
