REGULATIONS

Information contained in this document is

published as received from agencies and is

not edited by Thomson Reuters.

TITLE 2. FAIR POLITICAL

PRACTICES COMMISSION

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Fair Political

Practices Commission, pursuant to the authority vested

in it by Sections 82011, 87303, and 87304 of the Gov-

ernment Code to review proposed conflict–of–interest

codes, will review the proposed/amended conflict–of–

interest codes of the following:

CONFLICT–OF–INTEREST CODES

AMENDMENT

MULTI–COUNTY: Elsinore Valley Municipal Water

District

North Delta Water Agency

A written comment period has been established com-

mencing on April 15, 2016, and closing on May 30,

2016. Written comments should be directed to the Fair

Political Practices Commission, Attention Ivy Brana-

man, 428 J Street, Suite 620, Sacramento, California

95814.

At the end of the 45–day comment period, the pro-

posed conflict–of–interest code(s) will be submitted to

the Commission’s Executive Director for her review,

unless any interested person or his or her duly autho-

rized representative requests, no later than 15 days prior

to the close of the written comment period, a public

hearing before the full Commission. If a public hearing

is requested, the proposed code(s) will be submitted to

the Commission for review.

The Executive Director of the Commission will re-

view the above–referenced conflict–of–interest

code(s), proposed pursuant to Government Code Sec-

tion 87300, which designate, pursuant to Government

Code Section 87302, employees who must disclose cer-

tain investments, interests in real property and income.

The Executive Director of the Commission, upon her

or its own motion or at the request of any interested per-

son, will approve, or revise and approve, or return the

proposed code(s) to the agency for revision and re–

submission within 60 days without further notice.

Any interested person may present statements, argu-

ments or comments, in writing to the Executive Direc-

tor of the Commission, relative to review of the pro-

posed conflict–of–interest code(s). Any written com-

ments must be received no later than May 30, 2016. If a

public hearing is to be held, oral comments may be pres-

ented to the Commission at the hearing.

COST TO LOCAL AGENCIES

There shall be no reimbursement for any new or in-

creased costs to local government which may result

from compliance with these codes because these are not

new programs mandated on local agencies by the codes

since the requirements described herein were mandated

by the Political Reform Act of 1974. Therefore, they are

not “costs mandated by the state” as defined in Govern-

ment Code Section 17514.

EFFECT ON HOUSING COSTS

AND BUSINESSES

Compliance with the codes has no potential effect on

housing costs or on private persons, businesses or small

businesses.

AUTHORITY

Government Code Sections 82011, 87303 and 87304

provide that the Fair Political Practices Commission as

the code–reviewing body for the above conflict–of–

interest codes shall approve codes as submitted, revise

the proposed code and approve it as revised, or return

the proposed code for revision and re–submission.

REFERENCE

Government Code Sections 87300 and 87306 pro-

vide that agencies shall adopt and promulgate conflict–

of–interest codes pursuant to the Political Reform Act

and amend their codes when change is necessitated by

changed circumstances.

CONTACT

Any inquiries concerning the proposed conflict–of–

interest code(s) should be made to Ivy Branaman, Fair

Political Practices Commission, 428 J Street, Suite 620,

Sacramento, California 95814, telephone (916)

322–5660.
