The proper operation of government requires that public officials
and employees be independent, impartial and responsible to the people;
that government decisions and policy be made in the 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, there is hereby
readopted a procedure for disclosure by certain officials and employees
of private financial or other interests in matters affecting the City.
