SUMMARY:  The Political Reform Act requires every local government agency to review its Conflict of Interest Code biennially and amend the code as appropriate to ensure compliance with current State law.  The District last updated its code in January 2013 (Exhibit 3-B). 

 

In October, District Counsel reviewed the MPWMD Conflict of Interest Code and determined the Code should be amended to conform with the template developed by the Fair Political Practices Commission that reflects current State law.   The draft amended code must be approved by resolution, and is therefore attached to Draft Resolution 2016-16 (Exhibit 3-A). 

 

RECOMMENDATION:  The Committee should review the amended Conflict of Interest Code and approve Draft Resolution 2016-16.
