§ 105071 District Contract Conflict Ban

This law says that nobody who works for the district can have any personal stake or make money from contracts that the board gives out.

Key Takeaways

  • •District workers must stay out of any contract the board awards.
  • •They can't own, invest in, or get money from those contracts, even indirectly.
  • •Breaking this rule goes against the Government Code rules about conflicts of interest.

Example

A district employee's brother runs a construction company that wins a contract to build a new school.

Even though the employee didn't pick the company, the law says they can't be involved or profit from that contract because they have a family connection.
