CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
OF THE
CITY OF PALM DESERT
(Amended November 1 E, 20- December 11, 2014)
The Political Reform Act (Gov. Code Section 81000, et seq.) requires
state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes.
The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation (2 Cal. Code of Regs.
§ 18730) that contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code which can be
incorporated by reference in an agency's code. After public notice and hearing Section
18730 may be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to
amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of
Regulations section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political
Practices Commission are hereby incorporated by reference. This incorporation page,
Regulation 18730 and the attached Appendix designating positions and establishing
disclosure categories, shall constitute the conflict of interest code of the City of Palm
Desert (the "City").
All officials and designated positions required to submit a statement of
economic interests shall file their statements with the City Clerk as the City's Filing
Officer. The City Clerk shall make and retain a copy of all statements filed by the
Mayor, Members of the City Council and Planning Commission, the City Manager, the
City Attorney and the City Treasurer, and forward the originals of such statements to the
Fair Political Practices Commission. The City Clerk shall retain the original statements
filed by all other officials and designated positions and will make all retained statements
available for public inspection and reproduction during regular business hours. (Gov.
Code § 81008.)
