(A) All elected officials of the town and all candidates for elective office in the town shall meet all requirements regarding disclosure of economic interests, including but not limited to, filing of disclosure forms in the same format as required under Indiana Code. Copies of all forms shall be filed with the Clerk-Treasurer of the town.
(B) In addition to the above requirement, all public officials shall be required to file an annual statement disclosing: the name of any outside business or occupation outside his or her duties with the town together with the business address and phone number; any financial interest in a business entity along with an explanation and extent of his or her relationship to said entity; any financial interest of a family member or business associate which would affect his or her relationship with the town; and the amount of gifts or honoraria exceeding $200 received by the public official or his or her family member from an outside contractor. For purposes of this provision, outside contractor shall mean any person who has a contract, purchase or other commercial venture pending with the town or has engaged in any contract, purchase or other commercial venture with the town within the past 36 months of any such interest or event. Elected officials are understood to have all departments and divisions of the town within their segment of responsibility. In the event the public official has no outside business or occupation or financial interest that would require the filing a statement of disclosure to this section, then no filing will be required.
