City Council
259 N. Wilma Avenue
Ripon, CA 95366
MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Lisa Roos, City Clerk & Finance Director
Date: 06/09/2026
Subject: 2026 Local Agency Biennial Notice
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the 2026 Local Agency Biennial Notice confirming the City’s Conflict of Interest Code and authorize the Mayor to execute the document in accordance with the Political Reform Act.
BACKGROUND:
The Political Reform Act requires local government agencies to review their conflict of interest codes every two years. A conflict of interest code identifies the public officials, employees, and consultants who must disclose certain financial interests by filing a Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700).
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
In August 2014, staff conducted a comprehensive review of the City of Ripon’s Conflict of Interest Code. In June 2026, the City Council approved an amendment removing the Deputy City Attorney position from the code.
Other than that amendment, there have been no substantial organizational changes, including the addition, elimination, or re-classifying of positions, nor have there been substantial changes to the duties or responsibilities of designated positions.
Therefore, staff is recommending the City Council approve the 2026 Local Agency Biennial Notice without additional changes.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with filing the Biennial Notice.
