Sponsor: District Governing Board
Policy
Members of the District Governing Board (the Board) are subject to the requirements established by the Arizona Legislation for addressing conflicts of interest, including the provisions of A.R.S. §§ 38-501 to 38-511. Those requirements include, but are not limited to, refraining from voting on or participating in any manner in any contract, rule or procedure in which the member (or his or her relative) has a substantial interest, refraining from disclosing or using confidential information for personal gain, and refraining from receiving any compensation (other than compensation provided for by law) for services rendered in any matter before the Board.
To comply with A.R.S. § 38-503(B), which provides that any officer who has a substantial interest in a decision of the District “shall make known such interest in the official records” of the District, Board members will be asked to complete a conflict of interest disclosure on an annual basis indicating any known conflicts. Board members may not participate in any matter or decision in which they, or their relatives, have a substantial interest. Additional requirements are outlined in Procedure 430-02.
