Ex-Development Authority Head Settles Ethics Complaint

The former head of the Connecticut Development Authority has paid $16,000 to settle the state's conflict-of-interest complaint about his failure to disclose his wife's purchase of stock in a Pennsylvania company that applied a month later to his agency for millions in development aid.

The payments by Arthur Diedrick of Morris included fines and a charitable donation, the Office of State Ethics said Monday. Its enforcement division settled the case with him after a lengthy inquiry.

Diedrick is a member of the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism, but Gov. M. Jodi Rell's office said she wouldn't get involved in the question of whether Diedrick should remain in light of Monday's announcement.
