§ 36.141 OUTSIDE EMPLOYMENT AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.
   (A)   Employees shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in any outside employment or financial interest which may conflict, in the village’s opinion, with the best interests of the village or interfere with the employee’s ability to perform the assigned village job. Examples include, but are not limited to, outside employment which:
      (1)   Prevents the employee from being available for work beyond normal working hours, such as emergencies or peak work periods, when such availability is a regular part of the employee’s job;
      (2)   Is conducted during the employee’s work hours;
      (3)   Utilizes village telephones, computers, supplies or any other resources, facilities or equipment; or
      (4)   May reasonably be perceived by members of the public as a conflict of interest, or otherwise discredits public service.
   (B)   An employee who chooses to have an additional job, contractual commitment or self-employment may do so provided the employee obtains prior permission from the Village Board.
