SECTION 5: Statement of Economic Interests: Place of Filing. Designated employees
must file Statements of Economic Interests with the City of El Segundo, on forms
created by the Fair Political Practices Commission, in conformance with the individual
disclosure categories and state guidelines, when requested by the City Clerk. The City
Clerk will retain custody of the Statements and make them available for public
inspection and reproduction. Designated employees listed in the Code with an asterisk
(*) must either file their Statements directly with the Fair Political Practices Commission
in conformance with state guidelines, or file an electronic copy of their Statement of
Economic Interest with the City Clerk, using the City's e-filing system, Netfile, which
automatically files the document with the California Fair Political Practices Commission.
All other designated employees must use the city's e-filing program, Netfile, to file their
Statement of Economic Interest with the City Clerk.
SECTION 8: Disclosure and Disqualification — Interest and Positions in Non -Profit
Organizations. Whenever a disclosure category requires disclosure of specific financial
interests or positions in business entitles, disclosure of equivalent financial interests or
positions in non-profit organizations is required. Disqualification must be required as to
a disclosed interest or position in a non-profit organization whenever disqualification
would have been required as a result of an equivalent financial interest or position in a
business entity.
SECTION 7: Travel Payments, Advances and Reimbursements. If a payment,
including an advance or reimbursement, for travel is required to be reported pursuant
to Government Code § 87207, it may be reported on a separate travel reimbursement
schedule which must be included in the filer's statement of economic interests. A filer
who chooses not to use the travel schedule must disclose payments for travel as a gift,
unless it is clear from all surrounding circumstances that the services provided were
equal to or greater in value than the payments for the travel, in which case the travel
may be reported as income.
SECTION 8: Resolution No. 5881 (adopted December 04, 2018) and any other
resolution or policy purporting to establish a conflict of interest code, are superseded by
this Resolution and thus repealed in their entirety.
SECTION 8: Repeal of any provision of any resolution or policy herein will not affect
any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before, or preclude prosecution and
imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before, this Resolution's effective
date. Any such repealed part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or
prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Resolution.
SECTION 10: The City Clerk will certify to the passage and adoption of this Resolution
and enter it into the book of original resolutions.
SECTION 11: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.
