Potential Conflicts of Interest
The Housing and Community Development Commission makes recommendations to the City Council
regarding the distribution of federal CBDG/HOME funds. The general rule is that no persons who exercise
or have exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to federally funded activities, or who are in
a position to participate in the decision -making process or gain inside information with regard to such
activities, may obtain a financial interest or benefit from a federally —assisted activity, or have a financial
interest in any contract, subcontract, or agreement with respect to a federally -assisted activity, or with
respect to the proceeds of the federally -assisted activity, either for themselves or those with whom they
have business or immediate family ties, during their tenure or for one year thereafter.
Section 362.5 of the Code of Iowa generally prohibits, with certain important exceptions, a member of a
City Board or Commission from having an interest in a City contract.
