[Code 1975 §22.01(A); CC 1989 §2-56; Ord. No. 2532 §1, 11-28-2000; Ord. No. 3362, 8-11-2008; Ord. No. 3541 §1, 9-13-2010; Ord. No. 3691 §1, 8-27-2012; Ord. No. 3834 §1, 9-8-2014]
This Chapter shall be known and may be cited as "The Code of
Ethics of the City of Town and Country, Missouri".
[Code 1975 §22.01(B); CC 1989 §2-57; Ord. No. 2532 §1, 11-28-2000; Ord. No. 3362, 8-11-2008; Ord. No. 3541 §1, 9-13-2010; Ord. No. 3691 §1, 8-27-2012; Ord. No. 3834 §1, 9-8-2014]
The operation of democratic government requires that elected
officials, employees and members of boards and commissions be independent,
impartial and responsible to the people, recognize that the public
interest is their primary concern and faithfully discharge their official
duties regardless of personal considerations; that government decisions
and policy be made in proper channels of the governmental structure;
that public office not be used for personal gain or the perception
of 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 elected officials, employees and members of boards and commissions
is adopted.
[Code 1975 §22.01(C); CC 1989 §2-58; Ord. No. 2532 §1, 11-28-2000; Ord. No. 3362, 8-11-2008; Ord. No. 3541 §1, 9-13-2010; Ord. No. 3691 §1, 8-27-2012; Ord. No. 3834 §1, 9-8-2014]
The purpose of this Code is to establish guidelines for ethical
standards of conduct for all such elected officials, employees and
members of boards and commissions by setting forth those acts or actions
that are incompatible with the best interests of the City and by directing
disclosure by such elected officials, employees and members of boards
and commissions of personal interest in matters affecting the City.
