General Standard: No Commissioner shall be appointed with private or <br />personal interests likely to conflict with the general public interest. If any <br />person appointed to the Commission shall find that their private or personal <br />interests are involved in any matter coming before the Commission, they <br />shall disqualify themselves from taking part in any discussion or action on the <br />matter; alternatively, they may be disqualified by a two-thirds (2/3) majority <br />vote of the Commissioners in attendance. <br /> <br />2. Conflict Due to Economic Interests: A Commissioner has a conflict of <br />interest if, in his or her discharge of official duties, would be required to take <br />an action or make a decision that would substantially affect the <br />Commissioner’s financial interests or those of an associated business, <br />unless the effect on the Commissioner is no greater than on other members <br />of the Commissioner’s business classification, profession, or occupation. In <br />the event a conflict of interest exists with respect to a particular matter before <br />the Commission, the Commissioner shall disqualify himself or herself from <br />taking part in any discussion or action on the matter. <br />Page 5
