Peoria County staff remind committee to file annual statements of economic interest
Summary
Rachel Parker told the Ways and Means Committee that 8 of 18 required statements of economic interest had not yet been returned and urged members to complete them because they are required for committee and board members.
Rachel Parker, a county staff member, told the Peoria County Ways and Means Committee on an informational agenda item that eight of the 18 required statements of economic interest had not yet been returned.
Parker said those forms are required annually for committee members and board members to disclose potential conflicts of interest. “It’s basically showing that you don’t have any conflicts with any of the entities that you’re doing business with … in the county. But it is required,” Parker said.
A committee member asked how critical it was to have the forms returned; Parker reiterated the filing is required for service on certain committees and every board member. No formal action was taken; the item was presented as an informational reminder.
The reminder was included in the committee’s packet; Parker said she had no additional information beyond that supplied in the packet.
