B. Consultants:
The City Manager may determine in writing that a particular consultant, although
a "designated position," is hired to perform a range of duties that requires the consultant
to fully comply with the disclosure requirements described in this section. Such written
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 EI 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 one original copy of their Statement of
Economic Interest with the City Clerk, who must make and retain a copy and forward
the original to the California Fair Political Practices Commission. All other designated
employees must file one original copy of 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 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 shall be included in the filer's statement of economic interests. A filer
who chooses not to use the travel schedule shall 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. 4887 (adopted September 16, 2014) 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.
