Amend Section 2-17 to Replace 'Public Officials or Employee of the City' with 'Covered Individuals'
Plain-language summary
Following the City Attorney's recommendation, Commissioner Richardson moved to correct the language in Section 2-17 of the Ethics Code by replacing 'public officials or employee of the City' with the consistent term 'covered individuals.' This technical language fix passed 3-2, with Commissioners Matlow and Porter dissenting, as they felt it conflicted with an earlier motion to bring back the proposed ordinances in their totality.
