CONFLICT OF INTEREST" NOTICE:
Part Ill of Chapter 112, Fla.Stat., is the Code of Ethics for Public Officers and
Employees. This Code defines "conflict"or"conflict of interest"to mean a situation
in which regard for a private interest tends to lead to disregard of a public duty or
interest. Fla.Stat. §112.312(8). The intent of this Code, in part, is that public office
not be used for private gain. Fla.Stat. §112.311(1). A "conflict"or "conflict of
interest"is something that would result in a special private gain to an individual,
usually a special financial benefit. An appointed member of a committee of the City
of Atlantic Beach will most likely be subject to the provisions of the State Code of
Ethics. Disclosure of any potential conflict of interest should be made as soon as
possible in the appointment process. While it may be difficult to anticipate a conflict
of interest that could arise during future committee meetings, those known or
anticipated initially, including those which others might perceive as a conflict of
interest, should be disclosed during the appointment process.
