BACKGROUND INFORMATION
State law requires all public agencies to adopt a Conflict of Interest (COI) code. The COI code of each agency identifies those positions that are required to disclose financial interests annually on the Form 700. The Board of Supervisors is also the code reviewing body for local government agencies, other than cities, located entirely within the geographical jurisdiction of the County.
California Government Code Section 87303 states, no COI code shall be effective until it has been approved by the code reviewing body. Each agency shall submit a proposed COI code to the code reviewing body by the deadline established by the code reviewing body. State law also allows for an agency to amend its COI code at any time. The amended COI code, which has been updated to reflect changes in positions and titles for San Bernardino County, is being submitted for approval pursuant to these statutory requirements.
PROCUREMENT
Not applicable.
