It is the policy of the city that the proper operation of democratic government requires
that public officials and employees be independent, impartial and responsible to the
people; that governmental decisions and policy be made in proper channels of the governmental
structure; that public office not be used for personal gain; and that the public have
confidence in the integrity of its government. In recognition of these goals, a code
of ethics for all city officials and employees is adopted. When used in this division,
city employee, employee, city official and official shall have the following meanings:
City employee or employee means any person employed by the city, but does not include independent contractors
hired by the city.
City official or official unless otherwise expressly defined, means the mayor, members of the city council,
city administrator, all division and department heads, whether such person is salaried,
hired or elected, and all other persons holding appointed positions designated by
this code, as it may be amended from time to time.
The term "city official" also includes individuals appointed by the mayor and city
council to all city commissions, committees, boards, task forces, or other city bodies
unless specifically exempted from this division by the city council.
