ADVICE OF CHIEF COUNSEL
On August 9, 1979 you asked for an opinion or advice
of the State Ethics Commission. This request could not be
answered until regulations were developed. The Commission
approved their publication on April 7, 1980 and you are
advised as follows:
1. All elected officials and zoning officers are
covered by Act 170 and required to file Financial
Interest Statements by May 1 of each year. Elected
officials file only locally in those years they are
not candidates. When they are candidates, they file
the original with the State Ethics Commission and a
copy locally.
2. Appointed non - compensated members of various boards
and commissions are not covered by Act 170 and are
not required to file Financial Interest Statements.
3. Borough managers are covered by Act 170 and are
required to file Financial Interest Statements by
May 1 of each year. Where a person serves as a
borough manager in more than one location, he or
she should file a copy of his or her statement in
each location.
Sincere
