CONFLICT OF INTEREST
OF THE

CITY OF MANHATTAN BEACH, CALIFORNIA

INCORPORATION
The Political Reform Act of 1974 (PRA) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes to help government financial conflicts. See California Government Code sections 81000 et seq.

The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) has adopted a regulation that contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code, can be incorporated by reference, and may be amended by the FPPC to conform to amendments to the PRA after public notice and hearings. The City of Manhattan Beach (City) hereby adopts this conflict of interest code and incorporates by reference that regulation (2 California Code of Regulations section 18730); the Attached Schedule A, which identifies each position in the agency that is charged with making or participating in making a government decision which may foreseeably have a material effect on a financial interest; and the attached Schedule B, which identifies the economic interests that the individuals in those designated positions must disclose.

City officials (individuals holding, elected to, or appointed to a position in Schedule A must periodically submit statements of economic interests that disclose the economic interests in Schedule B that they held during the reporting period. The statements must be submitted to the Clerk's Office, which makes the statements available for public inspection and reproduction (see California Government Code section 81008).
