A staff member summarized filing requirements in plain terms: "our leadership and our council people have to report if they have any, conflicts of interest with business more than $500 valued, more than $500 with the city of Fulton. Other than that, it's a regular report. If you don't file, I will be on you, but there will be not be any fees associated." The ordinance was advanced to a second reading; no final adoption took place at this meeting and no roll-call vote was recorded.
