Sec. 16.07. - Board of Ethics.
The Civil Service Commission shall act as a Board of Ethics to enforce the provisions of this code of ethics. The Board of Ethics shall, on the written request of any officer or employee coming under the code of ethics, render advisory opinions concerning the provisions of this code of ethics. The Board may at its discretion publish its advisory opinion with such deletions as may be necessary to prevent disclosure of the identity of the individual or individuals involved or concerned. The Board shall receive, hear and investigate complaints concerning violations of this code of ethics. In any instance in which the Board of Ethics finds that a violation of the code of ethics exists, the Board of Ethics may impose any one or more of the penalties provided under paragraph one of Section 16.05. In any instance in which the Board of Ethics determines that a violation of this code of ethics exists which, in the opinion of the Board, justifies the imposition of the sanctions provided in paragraph two of section 16.05, the Board of Ethics shall submit all relevant information related to such case to the Council. In hearing and investigating complaints concerning violations of this code of ethics, the Board of Ethics shall have power to subpoena witnesses, administer oaths, take testimony and require other production of evidence. Any person who fails or refuses to obey a lawful order issued in the exercise of these powers by the Board of Ethics shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and punishable by a fine of not more than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) or by imprisonment for not more than ninety (90) days, or both.
