BILL NUMBER:S2262
Title of bill
An act to amend the New York city charter, in relation to the disclosure of personal interests of members of community boards
Purpose/summary of provisions
This bill would amend paragraph 17 of subdivision (d) of section 2800 of the New York city Charter, to require that any community board member who appears before a City agency on behalf of a client regarding a matter that also comes before the community board on which he serves must disclose his interest to the board.
Justification
It is desirable for community boards to include within their membership, persons with varied skills and interests, such as architects, engineers, lawyers, social workers, brokers and realtors. While this expertise ensures that the full board is aware of any particular member's personal interests on any given issue.
Fiscal implications
None to the State.
Effective date
On the sixtieth day after it has become a law.
