The Valdosta-Lowndes County Conference Center and Tourism Authority has amended its personnel policy on equal opportunity and affirmative action to state that it will cast a "wide net" to find the most qualified person for a position to maintain diversity.
This decision comes a month after The People's Tribunal, a local civil rights group, questioned past hiring practices and asked the Board to find the most qualified African-Americans to fill positions as they become open at the conference center.
The Rev. Floyd Rose, president of The Tribunal, stated in a press release that he and The Tribunal were pleased with the Authority's decision.
