RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Solano Consolidated Oversight Board adopt a resolution that adopts the Conflict of Interest Code for the Board.
DISCUSSION:
Health & Safety Code §34179(j) establishes the Solano Consolidated Oversight Board (Board) to oversee the activities of the six successor agencies in the Solano County area, thereby replacing all other successor agency oversight boards effective July 1, 2018. The Board is deemed a local entity for purposes of the Political Reform Act and pursuant to the Political Reform Act and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Fair Political Practices Commission ("FPPC"), a newly established local entity is required to adopt a Conflict of Interest Code. The proposed Conflict of Interest Code is attached to this item, as well as FPPC Regulation, Title 2, Division 6, §18730 Provision of Conflict of Interest Codes.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no financial impact in adopting this resolution or the Conflict of Interest Code.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Board may choose not to adopt the Conflict of Interest Code; however, this alternative is not recommended as the Conflict of Interest Code is a requirement under the Political Reform Act and state law.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
The Secretary of the Solano Consolidated Oversight Board and Solano County Counsel participated in the compilation and review of the Conflict of Interest Code.
