TO: |
Honorable Board of Supervisors |
FROM: |
Warren Slocum, Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder |
SUBJECT: |
Amended Conflict of Interest Code for the San Mateo County Employees' Retirement Association |
| |
Recommendation |
Adopt a resolution approving the updated Conflict of Interest Code for San Mateo County Employees' Retirement Association. |
| |
Background |
State law requires each local public agency to adopt a Conflict of Interest Code designating employees who must file annual conflict of interest statements. The law also requires a public agency to amend its code to address changed circumstances such as when it adds or deletes positions or changes the duties of positions. The Board of Supervisors, as the code reviewing body for all local agencies in San Mateo County except cities and agencies, must approve any changes in a local agency's code. |
| |
The County Clerk has notified local agencies, including County departments, of this requirement, and received an amended code from the San Mateo County Employees' Retirement Association which is being submitted to this Board for review and approval. |
| |
Discussion |
The resolution approves the updated Conflict of Interest Code for the San Mateo County Employees' Retirement Association subject to the Board of Supervisors' review. |
| |
Vision Alignment |
The amendment of the Conflict of Interest Codes for County agencies keeps the commitment of "responsive, effective and collaborative government" and Goal No. 21: "County and local governments effectively communicate, collaborate and develop strategic approaches to issues affecting the entire County." |

Fiscal Impact |
