i. Conflict of Interest:

City Commission · 2026-05-19 · agenda_item

This item concerns conflict of interest rules for a HOME-assisted activity within the City of Kissimmee. The rules state that city officials involved with HOME funds cannot have a financial interest in or benefit from HOME-assisted activities for one year after their tenure. This applies to contracts, subcontracts, and agreements related to these activities. The owner must keep records to show compliance with these rules, including any waivers. Additionally, the owner and their associates cannot live in any newly constructed units. This is a planned item, meaning opportunities for related services may arise as the project progresses through its phases, which could include planning, design, and construction. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to stay informed about this project's development to understand potential future needs. Early engagement can provide an advantage as the project moves toward implementation.
