Please keep for your records <br /> City of Elk River <br /> Conflict of Interest Ordinance <br /> Sec. 2-132. Intent of division; conflicts of interest prohibited. <br /> The credibility of the local government rests heavily upon the confidence,which citizens have in <br /> public officials and employees to render fair and impartial services to all citizens without regard to <br /> personal interest and/or political influence. Thus, city officials and employees must scrupulously <br /> avoid any activity,which suggests a conflict of interest between their private interests and city <br /> responsibilities. Officials and employees of the city, or their family members, shall not engage or <br /> have financial interest in any business or other activity which could reasonably lead to a conflict of <br /> interest with the official's or employee's primary city responsibilities. Family members of an official <br /> or employee shall be deemed to be the official's or employee's spouse,parents, children, siblings, <br /> father-in-law,mother-in-law,brothers-in-law, and sisters-in-law and the lineal descendants of any of <br /> them. Examples of activities,which are not in accordance with this policy,include,but are not <br /> limited to, the following: <br /> (1) Entering into any sale,lease, or contract in violation of Minn. Stats. §§ 471.87--471.89; <br /> (2) Acceptance by a local official of any gift from an interested person in violation of Minn. <br /> Stats. § 471.895; <br /> (3) Activities which require the official or employee to interpret city codes, ordinances, or <br /> regulations which such activity involves matters with which the official or employee has <br /> business and/or family ties; <br /> (4) Consulting activities carried out within the city if such consulting involves talents or skills <br /> primarily related to the official's or employee's city work responsibilities; <br /> (5) Using an official's or employee's authority,influence, or city position for the purpose of <br /> private or personal financial gain; <br /> (6) The use of city time, facilities, equipment, or supplies for the purpose of private or personal <br /> financial gain; <br /> (7) Entering into a business transaction when it involves using confidential information gained <br /> in the course of employment; <br /> (8) Accepting other employment or public office where it will affect the official's or employee's <br /> independence of judgment or require use of confidential information gained as a result of <br /> city duties; <br /> (9) Conducting personal business while working regularly scheduled hours; and <br /> (10) Accepting rebates or procuring any financial gain through the bidding process or <br /> employment of outside personnel. <br /> Sec. 2-133. Enforcement. <br /> Any official or employee engaging in any activity involving either an actual or potential conflict of <br /> interest or having knowledge of such activity by another official or employee shall promptly report <br /> the activity to the city administrator, or,if such activity be by the city administrator, to the mayor. <br /> The city administrator or mayor shall investigate the matter and make a determination as to whether <br /> or not an actual or potential conflict exists. If the city administrator or mayor determines a conflict <br /> exists,it shall be presumed that the continuation of the practice would be injurious to the <br /> effectiveness of the official or employee in carrying out his duties and responsibilities. In such cases <br /> the official or employee shall immediately terminate the conflicting activity or be subject to <br /> termination of employment or removal from office. <br />
