Administration of democratic government requires: 

• Public officials be independent, impartial, and responsible to the people;
• Government decisions and policy be made in the best interest of the people, the community and the government;
• The public have confidence in the integrity of its government.

Towards this end, the Open and Ethical Elections Code (City Charter Article XVI) and Board of Ethics and Campaign Practices were established.

The Board of Ethics and Campaign Practices issues rules and regulations for its conduct and for interpretation and enforcementof the Election Code.
