FROM; Maureen Benson, City Clerk � ._-
DATE: November 6, 2014 (CC Meeting of 12/3/2014)
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Amending the Conflict of Interest Code of the
City of Moorpark and Rescinding Resolution No. 2014-3308
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Political Reform Act, Government Code Section 87300, et. seq. requires every
state and local government agency to adopt and promulgate a Conflict of Interest Code.
The City's Conflict of Interest Code was last amended in July of 2014, when the City
Council adopted Resolution No. 2014-3308. Since the time of the last update, the
position for a Senior Human Resources Analyst has been added to the Administrative
Services Department, the Assistant Planner I position has been deleted and
designations changed to have Associate Planner I and Associate Planner II positions in
the Community Development Department, the Recreation Superintendent position has
been deleted from the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department and
Irrigation Specialist and Recreation Services Manager added, and the position of Police
Chief has been added as a designated position; all these changes require amendment
of the City's Conflict of Interest Code to incorporate the changes.
Attached is a draft resolution which would rescind Resolution No. 2014-3308, revise the
City's Conflict of Interest Code to include an updated list of Designated Employees and
the Disclosure Categories, and incorporate by reference the terms of Title 2, Division 6,
California Code of Regulations, Section 18730, and any amendments to it as duly
adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC). The attached resolution
includes City and Successor Agency and Successor Housing Agency of the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of Moorpark Designated Employees.
The City's Conflict of Interest Code is intended to list all designated positions, even if
there is no current employee with that position title. The City's Conflict of Interest Code
does not establish any disclosure obligation for the City Councilmembers, Planning
Commissioners, City Manager, City Attorney, and public officials who manage public
investments (City Treasurer and Successor Agency Treasurer), as Government Code
Section 87200, et seq., requires such disclosure as a matter of state law.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 2014- , rescinding Resolution No. 2014-3308.

RESOLUTION NO. 2014-
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
MOORPARK, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE CONFLICT
OF INTEREST CODE OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK AND
RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 2014-3308
WHEREAS, the Political Reform Act, Government Code Section 87300, et seq.,
requires every state and local government agency to adopt and promulgate a Conflict of
Interest Code; and
WHEREAS, the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) has adopted a
regulation which contains the terms of a standard model Conflict of Interest Code (Title
2, Division 6, California Code of Regulations, Section 18730), which can be
incorporated by reference, and which may be amended by the FPPC to conform to
amendments in the Political Reform Act after public notice and hearings conducted by
the FPPC pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act, Government Code Sections
11370, et seq.; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the terms of Title 2, Division 6,
California Code of Regulations, Section 18730, and any amendments thereto duly
adopted by the FPPC, along with the attached Appendices A and B, accurately set forth
the City's Conflict of Interest Code, including those positions which should be
designated, and the categories of financial interests which should be made reportable;
and
WHEREAS, the City Council has previously designated positions and disclosure
categories in Resolution No. 2014-3308, which now needs to be rescinded and an
updated Conflict of Interest Code adopted to: 1) Add Senior Human Resources Analyst
position to the Administrative Services Department; 2) Change Associate Planner
position to Associate Planner I and Associate Planner II in the Community Development
Department; 3) Change Recreation Superintendent to Recreation Services Manager
position and add Irrigation Specialist position to the Parks, Recreation and Community
Services Department; 4) Add Public Works Technician position to Public Works
Department; and 5) Add the position of Police Chief to Section IX.
WHEREAS, reorganization was approved on December 3, 2014, whereby the
position of Economic Development and Housing Manager has moved from the City
Manager's Department to the Community Development Department and the
Vector/Animal Control Specialist has moved from the Public Works Department to the
Community Development; and
WHEREAS, the positions listed in Appendix A have been determined to be
designated positions under the City's Conflict of Interest Code, because the persons in
those positions make or participate in the making of decisions which may foreseeably
have a material effect on financial interests; and
216
Resolution No. 2014-
Page 2
WHEREAS, the City's Conflict of Interest Code does not establish any disclosure
obligation for the City Councilmembers, Planning Commissioners, City Manager, City
Attorney, and Public Officials who Manage Public Investments (City Treasurer), as
Government Code Section 87200 et seq. requires such disclosure as a matter of state
law, nor does the City's Conflict of Interest Code include a position which is solely
clerical, ministerial or manual, or any unsalaried member of a board or commission
which is solely advisory; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the attached Appendices
accurately set forth those positions which should be designated and categories of
financial interest which should be made reportable.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK
DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1 . The terms of Title 2, Division 6, California Code of Regulations,
Section 18730, and any amendments thereto duly adopted by the FPPC are hereby
incorporated by reference and along with the attached Appendices A and B, in which
employees, officials, and consultants are designated and disclosure categories are set
forth, to constitute the Conflict of Interest Code for the City of Moorpark. If any of the
positions listed in Appendix A have a change of title, or if a position is transferred from
one City department or office to another, the filing requirement and disclosure category
shall remain the same until the next update of the City's Conflict of Interest Code.
SECTION 2. Persons holding designated positions shall file a Statement of
Economic Interests pursuant to Section 4 of the Conflict of Interest Code (Title 2,
Division 6, California Code of Regulations, Section 18730). The City Clerk shall carry
out the duties of Filing Officer for the City Council, which is the Code Reviewing Body.
SECTION 3. Persons elected, appointed, or hired for a newly created position
not yet designated under the City's Conflict of Interest Code, and who participate in
making government decisions, must file a Statement of Economic Interest pursuant to
Section 4 of the Conflict of Interest Code (Title 2, Division 6, California Code of
Regulations, Section 18734). The disclosure category for such positions shall be the
City's broadest disclosure category until the City's Conflict of Interest Code is amended
to include the new position.
SECTION 4. Resolution No. 2014-3308 is hereby rescinded.
SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this resolution and
shall cause a certified resolution to be filed in the book of original resolutions.
