City Council Meeting 12-19-00
~
DEe 1 9 2.
Santa Monica, California
TO Mayor and Council members
FROM: City Staff
SUBJECT: Recommendation to Approve the Pier Restoration Corporation's Conflict of
Interest Code and Amendments Thereto
INTRODUCTION
This Staff Report recommends that the City Council approve the Pier Restoration
Corporation's (PRC's) Conflict of Interest Code and an amendment thereto,
BACKGROUND
On April 7, 1993, the PRC Board of Directors adopted a conflict of interest code (the
"Code") based upon the standard model adopted by the Fair Political Practices
Commission as part of the California Administrative Code (2 Cal. Adm. Code Section
18730). The Code enumerates the positions within the PRC which involve the making or
participation in the making of decisions which may forseeably have a material effect on any
financial interest, lists the types of financial interests to be disclosed by each position, and
requires the designated PRC employees and board members to file annual statements
disclosing these reportable economic interests.
The PRC Board of Directors last amended the Code in 1998. Since then the staffing plan
for the PRC has changed. Specifically, there is no longer an Operations Manager, and the
1
fo1.
DEe 1 9 2.
position of Corporate PartnershipslCommunications Manager has been redesignated
Marketing Manager with attendant revisions to the position's duties. At its September 6,
2000 meeting, the PRC Board voted to amend its Code to reflect revisions to the PRC
designated positions and disclosure categories. The 1993 resolution adopting the Code,
the 1998 resolution amending the Code, and the recently revised attachment to the 1998
resolution are all attached to this report.
DISCUSSION
The Political Reform Act requires various agencies to adopt conflict of interest codes,
including the PRC. Government Code Section 87303 provides that a conflict of interest
code must be approved by the code reviewing body, The statute further provides that the
City Council, as the code reviewing body, must either approve, revise and approve, or
return the code to the agency for resubmission.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACT
No budget or financial impact will result from approval of the Code and the amendments.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Conflict of Interest Code, the
amendment, and revised Exhibit 2 to the amendment adopted and submitted by the PRC.
