Committee approves merging the county’s two ethics-code chapters
Summary
The committee approved merging chapters 19 and 20 of the county ethics code into a single policy; the only change noted by counsel was a scrivener correction to the material-conflict definition, and the measure passed unanimously.
Corporation counsel told the committee that the proposal merges two existing ethics policies (chapters 19 and 20) into a single ethics-code chapter, saying the draft is "in almost all aspects identical to the proposal you approved back in September" and that the only change from the legislative committee was a scrivener correction related to the material conflict-of-interest definition.
The committee moved, seconded and unanimously approved the merged ethics code. No members raised substantive objections to the merger or the scrivener correction, and counsel said the change did not change the meaning or intent of the section.
