determination must include a description of the consultant's duties and based upon that
description, a statement of the extent of disclosure requirements. The City Manager
determination is a public record and must be retained for public inspection in the same
manner and location as this conflict of interest code.
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

employees must use the city's e-filing program, Netfile, to file their Statement of Economic
Interest with the City Clerk.
SECTION 6: 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

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.

or policy purporting to establish a conflict of interest code, are superseded by this
Resolution and thus repealed in their entirety.
SECTION 9: Repeal of any provision of any resolution or policy herein will not affect any
