Sec. 1-10.09. Avoidance of impressions of corruptibility.
   Public officials and employees, whether appointed or elected, full time or part time, paid or unpaid, should conduct their official and private affairs so as not to give a reasonable basis for the impression that any such official or employee can be improperly influenced in the performance of his/her public duties. Such officials or employees should so conduct themselves as to maintain public confidence in their performance of the public trust in the government they represent. They should not be a source of embarrassment to that government and should avoid even the appearance of conflict between their public duties and private interests.
