BACKGROUND INFORMATION: As Council is aware, AB1234 (now codified in Government Code Section 53234 et seq.), went into effect on January 1, 2006. AB1234 mandates that local agency legislative bodies receive ethics training every two years. In addition to the legislative body, the training is also mandatory for specific boards, committees, and commissions as well as certain employees designated in the Conflict of Interest Code. The deadline for completing said training is December 31St of every even -numbered year. The training is offered in-person at Carnegie Forum through the City Attorney's office in December and online through the Fair Political Practices Commission website year-round. For the City of Lodi, AB1234 ethics training is mandatory for the City Council, Planning Commission, Recreation Commission, and Library Board of Trustees. While not mandatory for other boards, committees, and commissions and designated employees, the training is strongly encouraged for all. For 2014, we achieved nearly full compliance with all members of the City Council and a majority of the Planning Commission, Recreation Commission, and Library Board of Trustees in full compliance. The AB1234 Training Log, which is a requirement of the law, is attached for your reference. This report is provided for informational purposes only. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
