Practices Commission has adopted a regulation, 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730,
which contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code, which can be incorporated by
reference and which may be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to
amendments in the Political Reform Act after public notice and hearings. The terms of 2 California Code
of Regulations Section 18730 have been adopted by reference by the Town Council in Division 4 of
Article III of Chapter 2 of the Los Gatos Town Code.
B. The Town Council/Redevelopment Agency adopted an ordinance intended to
better facilitate the process of updating the Town's Conflict of Interest Code by authorizing the adoption
and periodic updates of the detailed appendices required by 2 California Code of Regulations Section
18730 containing the designation of positions and disclosure categories.

the Town as the Successor Agency for the former Redevelopment Agency to establish an
Oversight Board. Pursuant to ABxl 26 and a determination by Fair Political Practice
Commission (FPPC), the Oversight Board is required to adopt a Conflict of Interest Code. On
April 3, 2012, at its first meeting, the Oversight Board adopted a Resolution adopting the Town
of Los Gatos Conflict of Interest Code and any amendments thereto as the Conflict of Interest
Code for the Oversight Board
D. This resolution is intended to update the Town of Los Gatos Conflict of
Interest Code by amending the detailed appendices containing the designation of positions and
