The Shelby County Board of Commissioners is asking Shelby County Clerk Wanda Halbert to formulate a corrective action plan to remedy problems found in a review of her office in March by the Tennessee Comptroller’s office. The Daily Memphian reports that the resolution seeking the corrective action plan was approved by the commission on Monday on a 7-1-1 vote with several commissioners out of the room. Commissioner Mick Wright sponsored the resolution; he has called for Halbert's resignation several times. Commissioner Britney Thornton voted against the resolution, saying she felt that Halbert was being unfairly singled out.
