Executive Summary
The Political Reform Act of 1974 requires agencies to biennially review and amend their local
conflict of interest codes. These codes designate the positions that are subject to financial
disclosure requirements, and the level of disclosure that is required for each position.
Staff have reviewed and prepared an updated Conflict of Interest Code incorporating changes
to the code, to the disclosure categories and in designated positions that have been modified,
added or deleted since the code was last reviewed in 2022.
The law requires the City Council’s approval for any such changes.

Explanation & Analysis
Conflict of Interest Code
By agreement with the City of Carlsbad, the Carlsbad Municipal Water District, the Community
Development Commission, the Carlsbad Public Financing Authority, and the City Council as the
Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency have their services performed by city
employees, and the city is reimbursed by the other legal entities for those costs. The appendix
to the Conflict of Interest Code lists the designated positions that require anyone holding such
positions to disclose their investments, real property interests, business positions and sources
of income. An employee in a designated position may be disqualified from taking certain
actions because the employee’s duties for the city or the other agencies include making or
participating in making decisions that could affect the employee’s personal financial interests.
Staff’s biennial review of the code identified several designated positions that have been
added, reclassified or eliminated, which requires the List of Designated Positions and Disclosure
Categories to the Conflict of Interest Code to be amended accordingly.
As provided in the Conflict of Interest Code, employees occupying these designated positions
can expand their disclosure statements to cover reportable interests for all of the jurisdictions
they report. They can file these expanded disclosure statements with the City Clerk, provided
each copy of the expanded disclosure statement is signed and verified by the designated
employee as if it was an original.
The City Clerk’s Office, working with Human Resources and the City Attorney’s Office, has
updated the Conflict of Interest Code to reflect all changes in positions since the code was last
adopted, in 2022. A version showing all changes to the code is attached as Exhibit 6 to this
report.
Fiscal Analysis
There is no significant fiscal impact as a result of adoption of these resolutions.
Next Steps
The City Clerk’s Office will post the updated Conflict of Interest Code with an amended
appendix on the city’s website and notify affected employees of the amendments.
Environmental Evaluation
This action does not require environmental review because it does not constitute a project
within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act under California Public
Resources Code Section 21065 in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical
change or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

to a contract with a state or local governmental agency:
(a) Makes a governmental decision to:
1) Approve a rate, rule or regulation;
2) Adopt or enforce a law;
3) Issue, deny, suspend, or revoke any permit, license, application, certificate,
approval, order, or similar authorization or entitlement;
4) Authorize the agency to enter into, modify, or renew a contract provided it is
the type of contract that requires agency approval;
5) Grant agency approval to a contract that requires agency approval and in

on one project or a limited number of projects over a limited period of time, or
where the relationship between the contractor and the agency would last only
12-16 months with no ongoing relationship contemplated, or where, under a
multi-year contract, the contractor would perform only on a sporadic basis.
A consultant participates in making a governmental decision if the consultant

affecting the decision without significant intervene substantive review.
The staff person most knowledgeable of the work that a consultant will be performing shall
designate whether the consultant must file a Statement of Economic Interest by marking the
