For the purposes of this article, the following definitions
shall apply:
A City employee controlling, controlled by or under the common
control of another person participating in a corporation, partnership,
proprietorship or any other form of business organization engaged
in the construction business. A City employee who shares in the income
or has the right to share in the income generated from a construction
business shall also be deemed to be "affiliated" with said business
and the persons engaged therein.
Those businesses or activities concerned with the erection,
alteration, renovation or demolition of structures subject to the
construction, fire, property maintenance or health codes of the City
of Camden.
Any part of an employee's duties which involves the enforcement,
inspection or supervision of employees involved in the enforcement
or inspection of the construction, fire, property maintenance or health
codes.
A person affiliated with a construction business.
No City employee shall, as the owner of a construction company,
an affiliate of the owner or an employee of a construction company,
engage in the construction business within the City of Camden.
No City employee whose duties directly involve the inspection
of structures within the City of Camden shall enter into any contract
or agreement with any persons concerning construction within the City
of Camden; provided, however, that an employee may enter into such
an agreement for work to be performed on property owned by that employee
if said employee shall first make written disclosure of such contract
or agreement to the Director of his or her department so that the
Director may determine whether it is necessary to assign another employee
or an outside inspection company to perform the inspections in lieu
of the City employee who would ordinarily perform the inspection.
Directors making such agreements or contracts shall make disclosure
directly to the Business Administrator.
The use of an affiliate or a sham transaction to avoid the application
of the provisions of this article shall not absolve an employee from
responsibility hereunder and may, where it is apparent that the employee's
intent was to avoid detection of a violation of the provision of this
article, be considered a separate offense.
The directors of the departments may make further rules and
regulations according to the procedures provided by law to implement
and enforce this article.
A.
The Business Administrator and the City Attorney shall be prohibited
from holding outside employment, including the private practice of
law, for the purposes of avoiding conflicts of interest with their
official duties for the City.
[Added 4-28-2010 by Ord. No. MC-4536]
Violations of this article may constitute cause for institution
of disciplinary action against any employee violating its provisions.
