Board agrees to leave proposed wording in section 2-103 on sanctions for violations
Summary
The Independent Ethics Review Board reviewed a small textual change to section 2-103 clarifying when a "letter of notification" is appropriate (unintentional violations, reliance on a written city-attorney opinion, or actions inconsistent with division 1 values) and indicated no further changes were needed.
The Independent Ethics Review Board reviewed a proposed minor revision to section 2-103, the code section that addresses sanctions for violations.
Chair presented the amendment clarifying that a "letter of notification" may be used when the violation appears clearly unintentional, when the respondent acted in reliance on a written city-attorney opinion, or when the conduct conflicts with the values in division 1 of the article. Members recalled prior discussions about retaining the reliance-on-city-attorney language and agreed it had been material in earlier deliberations.
A member asked whether the proposed wording required a formal vote. The Chair indicated there were no further changes and the board would leave the revision as drafted. No roll-call vote was recorded on the revision during the meeting.
