To ensure that members of City boards, commissions, teams, and committees, both permanent
and ad hoc, understand their ethical responsibilities, they shall provide a signed
statement affirming that they are aware of and understand the provisions of City Code Chapter 2.08, Public Ethics and Financial Disclosure, including but not limited to Section 2.08.040, prohibited conduct and interests, of the Annapolis City Code. Also, in accepting
their position that they will maintain high ethical standards in the exercise of their
public or official duties and will not engage in any business or transaction or have
a financial interest, direct or indirect, which is incompatible with the proper discharge
of their designated duties and that they will not engage in any activity which would
create, or appear to create, a conflict of interest in the exercise of their public
or official duties. This requirement does not apply to the members of boards and commissions
specified in Section 2.08.051.A.2 who are required to provide financial disclosure
statements.
