Honorable Mayor and City Council
Department of City Attorney/City Prosecutor
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION REVISING DESIGNATED CITY OFFICIALS
AND EMPLOYEES REQUIRED TO FILE CONFLICT OF INTEREST
STATEMENTS
RECQMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Find that the action proposed herein is not a "project" subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 21065 and within the meaning of Section 15378(b); and
2. Adopt a resolution updating those employees, commissioners, board members and consultants who will be required to file conflict of interest statements as pertaining to positions within various City departments, commissions and boards.
BACKGROUND:
The City is required, by California Fair Political Practices Commission ("FPPC") regulations, to update its Conflict of Interest Code at this time, which will be accomplished by approval of the attached Resolution. In addition to its substantive reporting requirements, two appendices are attached to the Resolution. Appendix A is a list of employees, commissioners, board members and consultants who must file reports under the Conflict of Interest Code along with the disclosure category assigned to each employee based on the type of duties that an individual performs. Government Code Section 87302 exempts from listing in Appendix A those positions listed in Government Code Section 87200, including City Councilmembers (as they are separately required to report their interests). Appendix B, as amended, contains a detailed description of the disclosure categories and the specific FPPC reports which must be filed by persons in each category.
Appendix A includes the many position changes in departments, including new departments, throughout the City. No employees who were previously required to file conflict of interest statements have been exempted from doing so in this revision. All changes are reflected by bold; deleted positions are lined out.
