I.1:k <br />BEST BEST & KRiEGER <br />ATTORNEYS AT LAW <br />• . • IJ <br />To: PUBLIC AGENCY CLIENTS <br />From: PUBLIC POLICY & ETHICS COMPLIANCE GROUP <br />OF BEST BEST & KRIEGER LLP <br />CITY OF' <br />[ r <br />Date: MARCH 10, 2015 <br />Re: AMENDMENTS TO FPPC CONFLICT OF INTEREST MATERIALITY <br />STANDARDS FOR SOURCE OF INCOME, SOURCE OF GIFT, AND <br />PERSONAL FINANCES. <br />The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) has recently amended and <br />renumbered the materiality standards used to determine when a governmental decision <br />has a material financial effect on an official's source of income, source of gift, or his or <br />her personal or family finances. These new regulations follow revisions earlier this year <br />establishing new materiality standards for decisions affecting real property and business <br />entity interests. The changes complete the FPPC's undertaking to "revise and <br />streamline" the Political Reform Act's conflict of interest regulations. (Regs. 18700- <br />18706.) <br />As they did with materiality standards for real property and business entity <br />interests, the FPPC has abolished the two -pronged "directly involved/indirectly involved" <br />test for source of income and source of gifts, and has instead created one materiality <br />standard for each type of financial interest. (Regs. 18702.3 and 18702.4.) The FPPC <br />adopted the language at its February 2015 meeting, and the revisions took effect March <br />4, 2015. <br />In addition, the FPPC has made regulatory changes which consolidated the <br />conflict of interest analysis from an 8-step to a 4-step process (Reg. 18700) and revised <br />the meaning of "reasonably foreseeable" to provide better guidance (Reg 18701). <br />This product provided under the Public Policy & Ethics Group Program <br />93939.00001\9613114.1 <br />
