The Political Reform Act also requires the City to adopt a local conflict of interest code that enumerates specific City positions other than those specified in Government Code section 87200 which involve making or participating in making decisions which have a reasonably foreseeable material effect on an economic interest, and to deSignate for each position the specific types of investments, business positions, interests in real property and sources of income which are reportable based on the scope ofthe decision-making authority of the position; and C. Consistent with Chapter 2.09 ofthe Palo Alto Municipal Code and the biennial schedule established by the Fair Political Practices Commission for amending local conflict of interest codes, the City reviews and amends its local conflict of interest code by resolution every two years. NOW, THEREFORE, the Council ofthe City of Palo Alto does RESOLVE as follows: SECTION 1. Resolution No. 9122 is hereby repealed. SECTION 2.
