PALOMAR MOUNTAIN PLANNING ORGANIZATION CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY The Palomar Mountain Planning Organization (PMPO) Board of Directors affirms that they have an obligation to exercise their authority and to carry out the duties of their respective positions for the benefit of the PMPO and the Palomar Community that the PMPO represents. Decisions and actions of the PMPO Board should always be made in the best interests of the PMPO and the Palomar Community, and should not be influenced by the personal gain, financial or otherwise, of any PMPO Board member. The PMPO Board members should avoid placing themselves in positions in which their personal interests are, or may be, in conflict with the best interests of the PMPO or the Palomar Community. Where an actual, potential, or apparent conflict of interest exists, it shall be the responsibility of the person involved or any other person with knowledge to notify the Chairman of the PMPO of the circumstances resulting in the actual, potential, or apparent conflict so that the Board of Directors can provide such guidance and take such action as it shall deem appropriate. If a PMPO Board member believes that he or she has a conflict of interest, the Board member may also choose to recuse themselves from any Board action, regardless of Board guidance. I have read, and understand that it is my responsibility to adhere to the Conflict of Interest Policy, which includes notifying the Chairman of the Board if I become aware of any actual, potential, or apparent conflict situation. I understand that I am required to update this Disclosure Form, or notify the PMPO Chairman as provided above, if and as the information contained herein changes.
