a. Ethics Code. The City Commission

The City of Tallahassee is planning to enact a new ethics or conflicts of interest code. This code will apply to all city officers and employees, including elected and appointed officials, as well as members of boards, commissions, and committees. It will also cover city commissioners when they serve on outside governmental agencies. The code is intended to supplement existing state ethics laws. This item is currently under review and is planned for enactment within six months. The development of this code will involve legal review and drafting, followed by potential public input and final adoption by the City Commission. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor this process as it develops, as early engagement can provide an advantage before specific implementation details and related service needs are finalized.

b. Ethics Board. There is hereby created

The City of Tallahassee is reviewing a proposal to create an independent, seven-member citizens Ethics Board. This board will be responsible for developing an ethics code, managing a citywide ethics hotline, coordinating ethics training for local officials, and investigating complaints. The board will also have the authority to recommend new ordinances and levy civil penalties. An Ethics Office will be established to support the board, which may include an Ethics Officer/Director who could be a city employee or an independent contractor. This item is currently under review by the Charter Review Advisory Board. The creation of this board and its office will likely lead to needs for administrative support, legal services, and potentially office supplies and equipment. Early engagement with city staff or the advisory board could provide insight into the specific needs and timelines as this initiative moves forward.

d. The filing of a contribution refund

The City of Panama City is reviewing its purchasing policy and procedures manual. This manual covers purchasing limits and competitive bidding processes. The city is also considering limitations on annual budget expenditures. These limitations include a spending cap on personnel services, operating expenses, and capital projects. The cap is generally set at a 3% increase or the Consumer Price Index percentage change, whichever is less. However, exceptions exist for emergency expenses, gifts, grants, disaster relief funds, and special assessments. The City Manager can authorize emergency purchases up to $100,000 with the Finance Director's concurrence. This review is currently under consideration by the Charter Review Advisory Board. This process could lead to changes in how the city procures goods and services, impacting contractors, suppliers, and service providers. Early engagement with city officials during this review period may provide insight into future opportunities and requirements.
