SUBJECT: Title
Resolution No. 12-6386 Approval of the 2012 Conflict of Interest Code for the City of Manhattan Beach.
ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 12-6386
Body
____________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 12-6386 approving the 2012 Conflict of Interest Code for the City of Manhattan Beach.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no fiscal implications associated with this recommendation.
BACKGROUND:
The California Political Reform Act requires that every local governmental agency review its Conflict of Interest Code biennially to determine if it is accurate and up-to-date or, alternatively, the Code must be amended. Once the determination has been made, a notice must be submitted to the City Council (who is the Code reviewing body) no later than October 1 of even-numbered years. In keeping with the mandate, staff has prepared an updated Conflict of Interest Code incorporating the changes in designated positions that have been modified, added or deleted.
DISCUSSION:
As determined by the City Manager and all Department Heads, Exhibit “A” of Resolution No. 12-6386 provides the list of designated positions which reflects all officers and employees that are deemed to make, or participate in the making of, decisions, which may have a foreseeable material effect on a financial interest. There were no revisions made to the “Designated Positions”.
It is also important to note that while the City Councilmembers, City Treasurer, City Manager, City Attorney and Planning Commissioners are not listed in the City’s Conflict of Interest Code, they are listed by law under Government Code Section 87200 as mandatory public official filers of the Statement of Economic Interests, Form 700.
