CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
CITY OF FULLERTON
SECTION 1: Conflict of Interest Code – Adopted
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 adopted 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730 containing standard conflict of interest code terms, which an agency can incorporate by reference in an agency code. The Fair Political Practices Commission may amend the standard code to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act after public notice and hearings. This resolution incorporates the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission. This regulation and the attached Appendix A designating positions and Appendix B establishing disclosure requirements, shall constitute the Conflict of Interest Code of the City of Fullerton, which is considered the “agency” within the purview of this code. The Conflict of Interest Code of the City of Fullerton so adopted amends and replaces any Conflict of Interest Code of the City of Fullerton previously in effect.
SECTION 2: Conflict of Interest – Statements
Individuals holding designated positions shall file statements of economic interests with the City Clerk, who serves as and performs the duties of the filing officer for the City of Fullerton. The City Clerk will make statements available for public inspection and reproduction (Government Code Section 81008). The City Clerk shall make and retain copies of statements from individuals holding positions identified in Government Code Section 87200 and forward original statements to the Fair Political Practices Commission. The City Clerk shall retain all other original statements.
SECTION 3: Savings Clause
Any change provided for in this Conflict of Interest Code shall not affect or excuse any offense or act committed or done or omission or any penalty or forfeiture incurred or accruing under any other Conflict of Interest Code, nor shall it affect any prosecution, suit or proceeding pending or any judgement rendered in connection with any other Conflict of Interest Code.
