(Copies submitted to Council) Motion carried. (MINUTE ORDER #70-61) Director of Public Works reported on progress on additional creek studies in Emerald Branch area, with engineering plans being completed by Jenks and Adamson, rights of way being secured and plans anticipated to be before Council before long for approval. Councilman Petersen, noting the presence of Assemblyman Britschgi, referred to pending legislation concerning disclosure of assets, and invited the Assemblyman to comment. Assemblyman Carl Britschgi indicated the importance of conflict of interest bills to all local agencies, adding this was bad legislation to begin with and opposed it. The amended version of Monagan was thought to be a good one, but could not get it passed and to the Senate. However, he feels that the additional amendments that had to be accepted are intolerable. Under these provisions, if a partner in business, for example, refused to disclose assets, the official concerned would be guilty of a felony. He stated the Rules Committee has before them a reversal of the Unruh bill, which would take the Monagan bill with it. He discussed other possibilities, including that of possible repeal. Responding to question regarding possible relief, he advised with a deadline of April 6, it will be necessary to push the Monagan bill or extend the Chappie bill beyond the present April 6 filing date deadline. Will have to wait and see how the Senate reacts. Responding to further questions, he indicated that in his opinion a code of ethics concept would be one that anyone could go along with, in preference to these bills, and that he could even sup- port the disclosure aspect, if the confidentiality could be pro- tected, the information to be brought out only on approval of the Attorney General and the person involved. It was his feel- ing it is not possible to legislate morality. He noted some convincing situations where disclosure of assets would be con- trary to a businessman's interests. als for extension of time to allow continued use of received from the following: had been Ferris Miles, 1101 Main Street (Peter Zama) Key Lease Corp., 1090 Main Street Riggs Oldsmobile, Inc., 543 E1 Camino Real Aladdin Floors, 515 Woodside Road A & K Television & Appliances, 935 Brewster Avenue Paul Dibert Motors, 601 El Camino Real Redwood General Tire Service Co., 757 Jefferson Ave. Report and recommendation of the Ordinance Review Committee had been submitted to Coun- cil.
