<br />BILL 9191 - <br />An ordinance to establish a procedure to disclose potential conflicts <br /> <br />of interest and substantial interests for certain municipal officials. . <br /> <br /> <br />CITIZEN COMMENTS <br /> <br />Edward J McCarthy, 7101 Princeton Ave <br />Mr. McCarthy stated the CFO should be added and really would like to add all of <br />the Directors, as the City Manager may be doing his job but somebody <br />underneath him may not be doing their job. The other question he asked was that <br />there were no consequences so when you put this law out there, what was the <br />consequence for somebody goes through the whole year and does not disclose <br />that they are involved in some organization or entity or business the City is doing <br />business with. He noted the question was when you pass a law, what is the <br />consequence. Mr. McCarthy stated the CFO needed to be added to the bill. He <br />asked if he had to sue or does the City Manager look into this or City Police look <br /> <br />into it. He asked what consequences were triggered something in this law. <br /> <br />Mr. Kraft moved to amend by removing, “within 24 hours” and was seconded by <br /> <br />Ms. Carr. <br /> <br />Mr. Kraft stated it did not make any sense. What it said to him was if you had <br />something to disclose, you have a 24-hour window to disclose it. Mr. Kraft stated <br />you cannot disclose it a week before nor afterwards, but rather you have to <br />disclose it within a period of 24 hours before the meeting. Mr. Kraft said if you <br />should disclose it, just disclose it as it does not matter as to when it is disclosed <br /> <br />Mr. Sharpe said he agreed with Mr. Kraft. <br /> <br />Mr. Kraft said his motion was to delete, “within 24-hours, before he or she passes <br />on the measure <br /> <br />Mayor Welsch asked the members of Council who were present then, as she <br />thought the point was to be no later than 24 hours ahead of time. Mayor Welsch <br />stated Ms. Ricci’s point was that a member of Council would not disclose a conflict <br />of interest after a vote. <br /> <br />Mr. Kraft said it might be that you might not realize 24-hours in advance the exact <br />conflict, so until maybe on the dais. Mr. Kraft said it would be nice if you do it 24 <br />hours in advance or even a week before. As an example, Mr. Kraft said Council <br />decided to spend money on a consultant as was suggested tonight and a <br />Councilmember then realized the consultant being hired was owned by a family <br />member. The member could not recuse himself twenty-four hours in advance. <br /> <br />The motion and second was to remove “within 24-hours”. <br />Roll Call Vote was: <br />AYES: Mr. Kraft, Mr. Crow, Mr. Glickert, Mr. Sharpe, Mr. Price, Ms. Carr, Mayor <br />Welsch <br /> <br />NAYS: none <br /> <br />INTRODUCED BY MR. PRICE <br />24 <br /> <br /> <br />
