CITY OF CARSON 701 East Carson Street
Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council
Tuesday, October 6, 2026, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 18.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Michael George, Government Affairs Officer HR Administration Subject: CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 26-081 OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE CLASSIFICATION PLAN, RESOLUTION NO. 77-111, BY ADOPTING

UPDATED JOB CLASSIFICATION SPECIFICATIONS FOR UNREPRESENTED SENIOR COUNCIL AIDE AND

COUNCIL AIDE POSITIONS, AND AMENDING THE TERMS OF THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

EXHIBIT, TO UPDATE THE DUTIES AND EXPECTATIONS OF THE POSITIONS (CITY COUNCIL) I. SUMMARY
This item was on the August 4, 2026, City Council agenda, was continued, and is now on the October 6, 2026, City Council agenda at the request of Mayor Davis-Holmes. This item provides the City Council an opportunity to amend the job classification specifications for the unrepresented Senior Council Aide and Council Aide (full-time) positions.

The proposed revisions to the Council Aide and Senior Council Aide Salary and Benefits Exhibit and Class Specifications update the expectations and duties of the positions to better align with service delivery needs. The changes clarify employment provisions, establish additional accountability measures, strengthen ethical and administrative requirements, and update duties to reflect the operational support provided by the Council Aides to elected officials, City departments, and the community.

The proposed revisions enhance the City Council Aide team’s ability to provide responsive and effective public service by establishing clearer expectations related to scheduling, City resource use, event and constituent support, and compliance with applicable laws and policies. The updates also reinforce appropriate boundaries between official City duties and prohibited activities, supporting transparency, consistency, and public trust.

Remaining revisions are technical and administrative in nature and do not alter compensation, benefits, or the overall scope of the classifications.

II. RECOMMENDATION
WAIVE further reading and ADOPT Resolution No. 26-081, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE

CITY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING AND RESTATING THE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS, AND AMENDING THE CLASSIFICATION PLAN, RESOLUTION NO. 77-111, BY ADOPTING UPDATED JOB

CLASSIFICATION SPECIFICATIONS FOR UNREPRESENTED SENIOR COUNCIL AIDE AND COUNCIL AIDE POSITIONS”
III. ALTERNATIVES
TAKE another action the City Council deems appropriate and that is consistent with applicable laws.

IV. BACKGROUND
The City Council Aide and Senior Council Aide classifications provide administrative and operational support to elected officials and serve as a key connection between the City Council and the public. The proposed revisions (which are shown in redline/tracked changes in the exhibits) improve clarity, consistency, and accountability while ensuring these positions continue to support effective City operations, responsive public service, and the evolving needs of City Council offices. Also, the updates establish clearer expectations regarding duties, scheduling, ethical standards, and coordination with City departments while maintaining the flexibility necessary to support elected officials and community priorities.

Exhibit A – Salary and Benefits Exhibit for Council Aides and Senior Council Aides The revised Salary and Benefits Exhibit updates employment provisions to provide greater clarity and consistency in the administration of Council Aide positions. The revisions remove an elected official’s recommendation as a standalone basis for termination (Section 1), while preserving appropriate administrative processes. The revisions also clarify, without substantively changing, provisions related to Paid Time Off and holiday leave accrual, carryover, and payout requirements (Section 9), and update the March 31 holiday designation from Cesar Chavez Day to Farmworkers Day (Section 10).

The revised Exhibit A removes explanatory language related to the overtime exemption while maintaining the existing exemption status (Section 11), and establishes a formal Outside Employment policy through the addition of Section 28. This new policy requires disclosure of outside employment and approval by the Human Resources Director, while prohibiting outside employment that creates a conflict of interest or involves political campaign activity. Existing outside employment arrangements as of the effective date of the proposed resolution would be permitted to continue, provided they are properly disclosed to Human Resources. These new restrictions do not apply to volunteer activities.

Exhibit B (B1 and B2) – Senior Council Aide and Council Aide Class Specifications The proposed revisions to the Senior Council Aide and Council Aide (full-time) class specifications update position responsibilities to reflect the operational needs of modern Council offices and the level of coordination required to effectively serve the public. New duties include authorization to operate a designated City pool vehicle for official City business, including curbside transportation support for elected officials; management and coordination of City events and initiatives; and coordination of guests, dignitaries, and stakeholders participating in Council meetings and City events.

The updated classifications also establish clearer administrative expectations, including submission of weekly anticipated work schedules and timesheets and performance of assigned City Hall office hours and daily City Hall check-ins. These requirements are intended to improve coordination, visibility, and alignment between Council Aides, City departments, and administrative leadership, thereby supporting timely responses to constituent needs and City priorities.

Additional revisions clarify the appropriate scope of the Senior Council Aide and Council Aide advisory responsibilities by requiring consultation with the City Attorney in providing guidance to elected officials regarding the Brown Act, California Public Records Act, or Fair Political Practices Commission matters. The revisions further clarify that such assistance is limited to issues pertinent to City business.

To strengthen accountability and ensure appropriate use of City resources, the updated classifications also include an explicit list of prohibited activities, including political campaign work conducted using City time or resources, entering an elected official’s residence or hotel room, performing personal errands, and transporting an elected official in a personal vehicle for personal purposes. Questions regarding whether a requested activity is within the scope of a Council Aide’s duties will be referred to the City Manager or designee for determination.

Collectively, these revisions are intended to enhance the effectiveness, professionalism, and accountability of the City Council Aide team by establishing clear operational expectations, supporting consistent administrative practices, and ensuring that Council Aides remain focused on their primary role of advancing City business and providing responsive service to the community. Remaining revisions to the documents are limited to grammatical, formatting, and technical corrections and do not modify substantive duties, compensation, or benefits.

V. FISCAL IMPACT
There is no anticipated fiscal impact associated with this item because it pertains to the job classification specifications and employment duties and expectations and does not address or include any substantive changes to compensation or benefits for the positions.

Report to City Council, Successor Agency, and
Housing Authority
Tuesday, October 6, 2026, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 19.

To: City Council, Successor Agency, and Housing Authority From: Dr. Khaleah K. Bradshaw, City Clerk CLERK Administration Subject: REVIEW AND CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE REVISED CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODES FOR THE CITY OF CARSON, CARSON SUCCESSOR AGENCY, AND CARSON HOUSING AUTHORITY; AND

CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTIONS ADOPTING REVISIONS FOR THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODES

FOR THE CITY OF CARSON, CARSON SUCCESSOR AGENCY, AND CARSON HOUSING AUTHORITY,

RESPECTIVELY (CITY COUNCIL)
I. SUMMARY
This agenda item intends to complete the Biennial Code Review of the City of Carson, Carson Successor Agency, and Carson Housing Authority Conflict of Interest (“COI”) codes.

Under the Political Reform Act (the “Act”), all public agencies are required to adopt a COI Code and to periodically review and update the same. The last time the City of Carson (“City”) revised its COI Code was on January 17, 2023. Since that time, there have been substantial changes in duties and responsibilities for some job positions and other job positions have been eliminated or re-named. These changes necessitated amendment of the City’s COI code. Staff worked with the City Manager, City Attorney, Agency Directors and offices to determine those positions requiring disclosure of financial interests.

Attached to this staff report are the amended COI codes for the City, Carson Successor Agency, and the Carson Housing Authority. Each contains designated positions which have been determined to require disclosure of financial interests through the filing of a Form 700.

Government Code section 87311 provides “[t]he review of proposed Conflict of Interest Codes by the Commission and by the Attorney General and the preparation of proposed Conflict of Interest Codes by state agencies shall be subject to the Administrative Procedure Act. The review and preparation of Conflict of Interest Codes by local government agencies shall be carried out under procedures which guarantee to officers, employees, members, and consultants of the agency and to residents of the jurisdiction adequate notice and a fair opportunity to present their views.”
Staff did not receive a request to conduct a public hearing on this matter. Therefore, the adoption of the COI code requires two (2) separate actions by the City Council as follows:
(1) Confirm the completion of the Biennial Code Review for the City of Carson, Carson Successor Agency, and Carson Housing Authority, and approve the COI codes for the City of Carson, Carson Successor Agency and Carson Housing Authority, respectively.
(2) Consider adopting Resolution No. 26-025 (Exhibit 1) which formally codifies the revisions to the COI code for the City of Carson. Also, the Carson Successor Agency and Carson Housing Authority must consider adopting Resolution No. 26-03-CSA (Exhibit 2) and adopting Resolution No. 26-03-CHA (Exhibit 3), respectively, which formally codifies the City Council’s approved revisions to the COI codes for the Successor Agency and Housing Authority.

II. RECOMMENDATION
TAKE the following actions:

1. COMPLETE the City Council’s required biennial review of its own COI code and the COI codes for the Carson Successor Agency and Carson Housing Authority by affirming that its biennial review is completed; and

2. APPROVE the revised COI codes for the City of Carson, Carson Successor Agency and Carson Housing Authority; and,

3. WAIVE further reading and ADOPT Resolution No. 26-025, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF

THE CITY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE WHICH

INCORPORATES BY REFERENCE THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE PREPARED BY THE FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION”; and,

4. WAIVE further reading and ADOPT Resolution No. 26-03-CSA, “A RESOLUTION OF THE SUCCESSOR

AGENCY TO THE CARSON REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, CITY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA, UPDATING

AND REVISING THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE WHICH INCORPORATES BY REFERENCE THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE PREPARED BY THE FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION”; and,

5. WAIVE further reading and ADOPT Resolution No. 26-03-CHA, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CARSON

HOUSING AUTHORITY, CITY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA, UPDATING AND REVISING THE CONFLICT OF

INTEREST CODE WHICH INCORPORATES BY REFERENCE THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE PREPARED BY THE FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION”
III. ALTERNATIVES

1. DIRECT a further review of the COI codes for the City of Carson, Carson Successor Agency, and Carson Housing Authority; and/or

2. TAKE another action the City Council deems appropriate.

IV. BACKGROUND
Under the Political Reform Act (the “Act”), all public agencies are required to adopt a Conflict of Interest (“COI”) Code and to periodically review and update the same. COI Codes designate positions required to file Statements of Economic Interests (Fair Political Practices Commission Form 700), and assigns disclosure categories specifying the types of interests be reported. Form 700s are public records intended to alert public officials and members of the public to the financial interests of the filers.

The COI Codes for the City of Carson (“City”), Carson Successor Agency (“Agency”), and Carson Housing Authority (“Authority”) must specifically list positions that make or participate in making decisions. Typically, positions that involve voting on matters, negotiating contracts, or making recommendations on purchases without substantive review must be included in COI Codes. Positions listed in Government Code section 87200 (i.e., Mayor, Members of City Council, City Manager, City Attorney, City Treasurer and Members of Planning Commission, etc.) are not required to be included because these positions are required to file Form 700s by state statute.

The primary purpose of the COI code is to require disclosure of those types of investments, interests in real property, sources of income and business positions that designated positions may affect in their decision-making.

The City has special disclosure categories relating to properties and interests surrounding mobile homes since such properties and interests are a significant part of the way the City, Agency, and Authority have to conduct business in the community of Carson. Cities are allowed to create particular categories that are unique to their special needs in order to allow for full disclosure and transparency within the city and its agencies. Consistent with the above, attached to this staff report are COI Codes for the City, Carson Successor Agency, and the Carson Housing Authority. Each contains designated positions which have been determined to require disclosure of financial interests through the filing of a Form 700.

No COI code shall be effective until it has been approved by the code reviewing body (Government Code Section 87303). The code reviewing body for the City is the City Council. Under state law, the City Council is the statutory “reviewing body” for the Carson Successor Agency and Carson Housing Authority. As its own reviewing body, the City Council must first give notice of its intent to review and amend the conflict of interest code and afford a 45-day comment period. A copy of the notice and proposed code was provided to each individual affected by the proposed code.

The 45-day comment period commenced on August 4, 2026 and ended on September 21, 2026. During that time period, affected individuals had the opportunity to request a public hearing before the City Council concerning the proposed Codes. Pursuant to the notice of intent to review and amend the COI codes, there was no written comment received concerning the proposed codes.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
The Political Reform Act (Government Code Section 81000, et seq.) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation (2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730) that contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code, which can be incorporated by reference in an agency’s code. After public notice and hearing, the standard code may be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission are hereby incorporated by reference. This regulation and the attached Appendices, designating positions and establishing disclosure categories, shall constitute the conflict of interest code of the City of Carson (“City”).

Individuals holding designated positions shall file their statements of economic interests with the City, which will make the statements available for public inspection and reproduction (Gov. Code Sec. 81008). All statements will be retained by the City.

RESOLUTION NO. 26-025

No designated employee shall make, participate in making, or in any way attempt to use the employee's official position to influence the making of any governmental decision which the employee knows or has reason to know will have a reasonably foreseeable material financial effect, distinguishable from its effect on the public generally, on the official or a member of the official's immediate family or on:
(A) Any business entity in which the designated employee has a direct or indirect investment worth $2,000 or more;
(B) Any real property in which the designated employee has a direct or indirect interest worth $2,000 or more;
(C) Any source of income, other than gifts and other than loans by a commercial lending institution in the regular course of business on terms available to the public without regard to official status, aggregating $500 or more in value provided to, received by or promised to the designated employee within 12 months prior to the time when the decision is made; (D) Any business entity in which the designated employee is a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, or holds any position of management; or

(9.3) Section 9.3. Legally Required Participation.

No designated employee shall be prevented from making or participating in the making of any decision to the extent the employee's participation is legally required for the decision to be made.

In addition to the general disqualification provisions of section 9, no state administrative official shall make, participate in making, or use the official's position to influence any governmental decision directly relating to any contract where the state administrative official knows or has reason to know that any party to the contract is a person with whom the state administrative official, or any member of the official's immediate family has, within 12 months prior to the time when the official action is to be taken:
(A) Engaged in a business transaction or transactions on terms not available to members of the public, regarding any investment or interest in real property; or (B) Engaged in a business transaction or transactions on terms not available to members of the public regarding the rendering of goods or services totaling in value $1,000 or more.

RESOLUTION NO 26-025

(10) Section 10. Disclosure of Disqualifying Interest.

When a designated employee determines that the employee should not make a governmental decision because the employee has a disqualifying interest in it, the determination not to act may be accompanied by disclosure of the disqualifying interest. (11) Section 11. Assistance of the Commission and Counsel.

Any designated employee who is unsure of the duties under this code may request assistance from the Fair Political Practices Commission pursuant to Section 83114 and Regulations 18329 and 18329.5 or from the attorney for the employee's agency, provided that nothing in this section requires the attorney for the agency to issue any formal or informal opinion. (12) Section 12. Violations.

This code has the force and effect of law. Designated employees violating any provision of this code are subject to the administrative, criminal and civil sanctions provided in the Political Reform Act, Sections 81000-91014. In addition, a decision in relation to which a violation of the disqualification provisions of this code or of Section 87100 or 87450 has occurred may be set aside as void pursuant to Section 91003. [FN1]
Designated employees who are required to file statements of economic interests under any other agency's conflict of interest code, or under article 2 for a different jurisdiction, may expand their statement of economic interests to cover reportable interests in both jurisdictions, and file copies of this expanded statement with both entities in lieu of filing separate and distinct statements, provided that each copy of such expanded statement filed in place of an original is signed and verified by the designated employee as if it were an original. See Section 81004.
[FN2]
See Section 81010 and Regulation 18115 for the duties of filing officers and persons in agencies who make and retain copies of statements and forward the originals to the filing officer. [FN3]
For the purpose of disclosure only (not disqualification), an interest in real property does not include the principal residence of the filer.
[FN4]
Investments and interests in real property which have a fair market value of less than $2,000 are not investments and interests in real property within the meaning of the Political Reform Act.

However, investments or interests in real property of an individual include those held by the individual's spouse and dependent children as well as a pro rata share of any investment or interest in real property of any business entity or trust in which the individual, spouse and 01007.0001 2102145.3
RESOLUTION NO. 26-025

dependent children own, in the aggregate, a direct, indirect or beneficial interest of 10 percent or greater.
[FN5]
A designated employee's income includes the employee's community property interest in the income of the employee's spouse but does not include salary or reimbursement for expenses received from a state, local or federal government agency. [FN6]
Income of a business entity is reportable if the direct, indirect or beneficial interest of the filer and the filer's spouse in the business entity aggregates a 10 percent or greater interest. In addition, the disclosure of persons who are clients or customers of a business entity is required only if the clients or customers are within one of the disclosure categories of the filer.

A RESOLUTION OF THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE CARSON

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, CITY OF CARSON, CALIFORNIA UPDATING AND

REVISING THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE WHICH INCORPORATES BY

REFERENCE THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE PREPARED BY THE FAIR

POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION

THE BOARD OF THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE CARSON REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, CITY OF CARSON, DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. The Political Reform Act of 1974, California Government Code sections 81000 et seq., requires the Successor Agency to the Carson Redevelopment Agency (“Successor Agency”) to establish a Conflict of Interest Code.

Section 2. The Successor Agency hereby determines that it is both necessary and appropriate to establish a Conflict of Interest Code and to list designated positions and to assign appropriate disclosure categories for those positions.

Section 3. The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a Model Conflict of Interest Code (the “Model Code”). The Model Code, which is codified at 2 California Code of Regulations section 18730, can be incorporated by reference by the Successor Agency as the Agency’s conflict of interest code. That Model Code will be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission from time to time to conform to any amendments to the Political Reform Act. The Model Code, attached hereto as Exhibit “A,” and any amendments to it that are duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission; and Exhibit “B,” the Successor Agency’s Conflict of Interest Code and Designated Positions and Disclosure Categories, are hereby incorporated by reference and shall constitute, and the same hereby is designated, the Conflict of Interest Code of the Successor Agency.

Section 4. Incorporation by reference of the terms of the aforementioned Model Code and any future amendments to it in the Agency’s Conflict of Interest Code will save the Successor Agency time and the expenditure of public funds by minimizing the actions required of the Successor Agency Board to maintain conformity with the Political Reform Act.

Section 5. Pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code section 87311, officers, employees, members of the public, consultants, and residents of the jurisdiction were given due and proper notice and opportunity to present their views prior to adoption of this resolution.

SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE CARSON REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY

CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
The Political Reform Act (Government Code Section 81000, et seq.) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation (2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730) that contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code, which can be incorporated by reference in an agency’s code. After public notice and hearing, the standard code may be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission are hereby incorporated by reference. This regulation and the attached Appendices, designating positions and establishing disclosure categories, shall constitute the conflict of interest code of the Successor Agency for the Carson Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”).

Individuals holding designated positions shall file their statements of economic interests with the Agency, which will make the statements available for public inspection and reproduction (Gov. Code Sec. 81008). All statements will be retained by the Agency.

RESOLUTION NO. 26-03-CSA

Exhibit A
Model Conflict of Interest Code (2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730) (Regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission, Title 2, Division 6, California Code of Regulations)
§ 18730. Provisions of Conflict of Interest Codes.
(a) Incorporation by reference of the terms of this regulation along with the designation of employees and the formulation of disclosure categories in the Appendix referred to below constitute the adoption and promulgation of a conflict of interest code within the meaning of Section 87300 or the amendment of a conflict of interest code within the meaning of Section 87306 if the terms of this regulation are substituted for terms of a conflict of interest code already in effect. A code so amended or adopted and promulgated requires the reporting of reportable items in a manner substantially equivalent to the requirements of article 2 of chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Sections 81000, et seq. The requirements of a conflict of interest code are in addition to other requirements of the Political Reform Act, such as the general prohibition against conflicts of interest contained in Section 87100, and to other state or local laws pertaining to conflicts of interest.
(b) The terms of a conflict of interest code amended or adopted and promulgated pursuant to this regulation are as follows:
(1) Section 1. Definitions.

The definitions contained in the Political Reform Act of 1974, regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission (Regulations 18110, et seq.), and any amendments to the Act or regulations, are incorporated by reference into this conflict of interest code. (2) Section 2. Designated Employees.

The persons holding positions listed in the Appendix are designated employees. It has been determined that these persons make or participate in the making of decisions which may foreseeably have a material effect on economic interests. (3) Section 3. Disclosure Categories.

This code does not establish any disclosure obligation for those designated employees who are also specified in Section 87200 if they are designated in this code in that same capacity or if the geographical jurisdiction of this agency is the same as or is wholly included within the jurisdiction in which those persons must report their economic interests pursuant to article 2 of chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Sections 87200, et seq.

In addition, this code does not establish any disclosure obligation for any designated employees who are designated in a conflict of interest code for another agency, if all of the following apply:
(A) The geographical jurisdiction of this agency is the same as or is wholly included within the jurisdiction of the other agency;
01007.0001 2102156.2
RESOLUTION NO. 26-03-CSA

(B) The disclosure assigned in the code of the other agency is the same as that required under article 2 of chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Section 87200; and (C) The filing officer is the same for both agencies. [FN1] Such persons are covered by this code for disqualification purposes only. With respect to all other designated employees, the disclosure categories set forth in the Appendix specify which kinds of economic interests are reportable. Such a designated employee shall disclose in the employee's statement of economic interests those economic interests the employee has which are of the kind described in the disclosure categories to which the employee is assigned in the Appendix. It has been determined that the economic interests set forth in a designated employee's disclosure categories are the kinds of economic interests which the employee foreseeably can affect materially through the conduct of the employee's office. (4) Section 4. Statements of Economic Interests: Place of Filing.

The code reviewing body shall instruct all designated employees within its code to file statements of economic interests with the agency or with the code reviewing body, as provided by the code reviewing body in the agency's conflict of interest code or with the Fair Political Practices Commission using the Commission's electronic filing system as required under Section 87500.

Thereafter, each person already in a position when it is designated by an amendment to this code shall file an initial statement within 30 days after the effective date of the amendment. (B) Assuming Office Statements. All persons assuming designated positions after the effective date of this code shall file statements within 30 days after assuming the designated positions, or if subject to State Senate confirmation, 30 days after being nominated or appointed. (C) Annual Statements. All designated employees shall file statements no later than April 1. If a person reports for military service as defined in the Servicemember's Civil Relief Act, the deadline for the annual statement of economic interests is 30 days following the person's return to office, provided the person, or someone authorized to represent the person's interests, notifies the filing officer in writing prior to the applicable filing deadline that the person is subject to that federal statute and is unable to meet the applicable deadline, and provides the filing officer verification of the person's military status.
(D) Leaving Office Statements. All persons who leave designated positions shall file statements within 30 days after leaving office.
(5.5) Section 5.5. Statements for Persons Who Resign Prior to Assuming Office.

Any person who resigns within 12 months of initial appointment, or within 30 days of the date of notice provided by the filing officer to file an assuming office statement, is not deemed to RESOLUTION NO. 26-03-CSA

have assumed office or left office, provided the person did not make or participate in the making of, or use the person's position to influence any decision and did not receive or become entitled to receive any form of payment as a result of the person's appointment. Such persons shall not file either an assuming or leaving office statement. (A) Any person who resigns a position within 30 days of the date of a notice from the filing officer shall do both of the following:
(1) File a written resignation with the appointing power; and (2) File a written statement with the filing officer declaring under penalty of perjury that during the period between appointment and resignation the person did not make, participate in the making, or use the position to influence any decision of the agency or receive, or become entitled to receive, any form of payment by virtue of being appointed to the position.

(C) Contents of Annual Statements. Annual statements shall disclose any reportable investments, interests in real property, income and business positions held or received during the previous calendar year provided, however, that the period covered by an employee's first annual statement shall begin on the effective date of the code or the date of assuming office whichever is later, or for a board or commission member subject to Section 87302.6, the day after the closing date of the most recent statement filed by the member pursuant to Regulation 18754.
(D) Contents of Leaving Office Statements.

Leaving office statements shall disclose reportable investments, interests in real property, income and business positions held or received during the period between the closing date of the last statement filed and the date of leaving office. (7) Section 7. Manner of Reporting.

Any designated employee who is unsure of the duties under this code may request assistance from the Fair Political Practices Commission pursuant to Section 83114 and Regulations 18329 and 18329.5 or from the attorney for the employee's agency, provided that nothing in this section requires the attorney for the agency to issue any formal or informal opinion. (12) Section 12. Violations.

This code has the force and effect of law. Designated employees violating any provision of this code are subject to the administrative, criminal and civil sanctions provided in the Political Reform Act, Sections 81000-91014. In addition, a decision in relation to which a violation of the disqualification provisions of this code or of Section 87100 or 87450 has occurred may be set aside as void pursuant to Section 91003. [FN1]
Designated employees who are required to file statements of economic interests under any other agency's conflict of interest code, or under article 2 for a different jurisdiction, may expand their statement of economic interests to cover reportable interests in both jurisdictions, and file copies of this expanded statement with both entities in lieu of filing separate and distinct statements, provided that each copy of such expanded statement filed in place of an original is signed and verified by the designated employee as if it were an original. See Section 81004.
[FN2]
See Section 81010 and Regulation 18115 for the duties of filing officers and persons in agencies who make and retain copies of statements and forward the originals to the filing officer. [FN3]
For the purpose of disclosure only (not disqualification), an interest in real property does not include the principal residence of the filer.
