The City Council referred a report from the Los Angeles City Ethics Commission to update the Governmental Ethics Ordinance and Form 51 to the Ad Hoc Committee on City Governance Reform for further deliberation.
This report proposes recommendations which would require City officials to file a Form 51 (City recusal notification) each time they recuse themselves from participation in a matter due to an actual or apparent conflict of interest. Form 51 provides details about the recusal, including the nature of the conflict and the meeting date.
