GOVERNMENT CODE 84308 CONTRIBUTION PROHIBITIONS AND MANDATORY DISCLOSURES - The Political Reform Act of 1974 (Act) restricts campaign contributions over $250 from a party to or participant in a proceeding involving a license, permit, contract, or entitlement for use before the City. The Act requires disclosure of the contribution and creates a conflict where a decisionmaker has received $250 or more from a party or participant to a proceeding in the prior 12 months. A decisionmaker must disclose on the record during the proceeding that they have received contributions from a party, participant, or agent of a party or participant, greater than $250 within the preceding 12 months and the name(s) of the contributor(s). (See 2 CCR 18438.8(a).) Parties and participants to a proceeding are required to disclose on the record if they made contributions over $250 within the prior 12 months, and are prohibited from making contributions to a decisionmaker during the proceeding and for 12 months after the date a final decision is rendered on the proceeding. Violations of these provisions are punishable as a misdemeanor.
