moo 2 41992 BOOK <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Adams, the Board (4-1, Commissioner <br />Macht voting in opposition) approved continuation of <br />voice voting and to clarify the vote on the record. <br />M I <br />COUNTY CODE OF ETHICS <br />The Board reviewed memo from Commissioner Macht dated November <br />18, 1992: <br />TO: Board of County Commissioners <br />FROM: Commissioner Kenneth Macht <br />/;�- 41 <br />DATE: November 18, 1992 <br />RE: COUNTY CODE OF ETHICS <br />Chapter 112, Part III, Florida Statutes contains a Code of Ethics for <br />Public Officers and employees. This part provides a good minimum <br />standard for public officers and employees; however, it is my belief <br />that every citizen is entitled to have complete confidence in the <br />integrity of his government. Each individual commissioner, officer, <br />employee or advisor of government must help to earn and must honor <br />that trust by his own integrity and conduct in all official actions. I <br />feel that additional ethical requirements should be enacted that raise the <br />standards beyond that required by Chapter 112, Florida Statutes. To <br />that end, I have prepared additional standards modeled after Federal <br />standards. My proposal is attached. If you agree, I recommend that <br />the County Attorney be instructed to prepare an ordinance and a public <br />hearing date be selected. <br />The Board agreed that this issue needed more time for <br />discussion and deferred it to another meeting. <br />There being no further business, on Motion duly made, seconded <br />and carried, the Board adjourned at 12:30 o'clock p.m. <br />ATTEST: <br />J.
