Summary

Under current law, the independent ethics commission created in
article XXIX of the state constitution does not have jurisdiction over
officials or employees of special districts or school districts. The bill
gives the independent ethics commission jurisdiction to hear complaints,
issue findings, assess penalties, and issue advisory opinions on ethics
issues concerning a special district official or employee or school district
official or employee. Existing law establishes ethical standards for a
special district official or employee or school district official or employee.
The bill incorporates those standards under the independent ethics
commission's jurisdiction and expands the standards to include those
described in article XXIX of the state constitution.
