Conflict Disclosures
For Employees
Chapter 176 of the Texas Local Government Code requires local government officers (LGOs) to disclose relationships with certain vendors. Employees and agents subject to the conflicts disclosure requirements must complete the CIS Form.
At NYOS Charter School, all directors and above fit within the definition of an LGO; including the Superintendent and the Board. All of these individuals are required to complete the CIS form for any gift from a vendor that is valued at $100 or more or has been multiple items during a 12-month period that add up to $100 or more.
Principals and other administrators who exercise discretion in the planning, recommending, selecting, or contracting with a vendor also qualify as an LGO and are required to report gifts.
