The Hall County Board of Commissioners is looking at starting a practice of ensuring that county pension money isn’t invested in financial institutions "with active business operations in the petroleum and energy industry" in Iran or Sudan. The board is set to vote on a resolution on the matter at its 6 p.m. Thursday meeting at the Georgia Mountains Center. If approved, county finance officials would be directed to keep a constant watch on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s website, said Commissioner Ashley Bell, who introduced the resolution.
