ATLANTA -- The DOT board voted Monday to reprimand Commissioner Gena Abraham, allowing her to keep her job.

The board voted 8-3 in favor of a written reprimand, citing Abraham for failing to report her relationship with former board chairman Mike Evans in a "timely fashion."

Evans handed in his resignation last week and revealed the relationship with Abraham. DOT policy forbids intimate relationships in the direct chain of command.

Board member Dana Lemon put forth a proposal to oust Abraham but the board never voted on it opting for the reprimand instead.

Acting Board Chairman William Kuhlke also confirmed that a sexual harassment complaint had been filed against acting Board Chairman Garland Pinholster.

Pinholster had been serving as chairman since Evans stepped down but on Monday he resigned the chairmanship.
