1-402 : Definition of "personal interest".

  1. For the purposes of §§ 1-403 and 1-404, "personal interest" means:


    1. Any financial, ownership, or employment interest in the subject of a vote by a municipal board not otherwise regulated by state statutes on conflicts of interests;
    2. Any financial, ownership, or employment interest in a matter to be regulated or supervised; or
    3. Any such financial, ownership, or employment interest of the official's or employee's spouse, parent(s), step-parent(s), grandparent(s), sibling(s), child(ren), or step-child(ren).
  2. The words "employment interest" include a situation in which an official or employee or a designated family member is negotiating possible employment with a person or organization that is the subject of the vote or that is to be regulated or supervised.
  3. In any situation in which a personal interest is also a conflict of interest under state law, the provisions of the state law take precedence over the provisions of this chapter. (2011 Code, § 1-402)
