sections relating to all boards and committees
Adopted new uniform procedures for all boards
and committees
Required new appointments effective October

“Sunshine Law”
Florida's Sunshine Law (Section 286.011)is
founded on a provision of the Florida Constitution
(Art.I,s.24)approved by the voters in 1992.
The Sunshine Law applies to both elected and
appointed boards.
“Sunshine Law”
Three basic requirements to satisfy:
1.Meetings of all public boards
must be open to the public.
2.Reasonable notice of the
meetings must be given.
3.Minutes of the meetings must be
taken.
“Sunshine Law”
The Sunshine Law applies to anygathering,whether formal or casual,of two or more members of thesameboardtodiscussanymatteronwhichforeseeableactionwillbetakenbytheboard.
“Sunshine Law”
Public meetings cannot be held at any facility
which discriminates on the basis of sex,age,
race,creed,color,origin,or economic status or
which unreasonably restricts public access.
The use of the telephones,written
correspondence,and e-mail are subject to the
requirements of the Sunshine Law.
Ethics and Financial Disclosure
Fla. Stat. Chapter 112, the Code of Ethics for
Public Officers and Employees applies to members
of advisory bodies.
Additionally, the City Council established a conflict
of interest policy in Resolution 55, 1995.

Ethics Training must be retaken every two years
Ethics and Financial Disclosure
Voting Issues

unless there is,or appears to be,a conflict of
interest under the Code of Ethics.

Quasi-Judicial Hearings
Certain City boards are charged with fact-finding and decision-making responsibilities that render their decisions quasi-judicial.Quasi-judicial hearings involve notice of a public meeting,ameetingopentothepublicatwhichtestimonyisgivenandpartieshavetherightofcross-examination.Thereafter,basedupontheevidenceandtestimonypresentedtheboardmakesfindingsoffactandrendersadecisionbaseduponthefactsadducedatthehearing.Such decisions constitute official acts oftheCityandareappealableincircuitcourt.
The City Council, the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board, and the Pension Boards all conduct quasi-judicial hearings on certain matters.

Any communication between a board member and an
applicant,or other interested party,which takes place
outside of a noticed public meeting,is an ex parte
communication.Such communications are considered
pre-judicial unless properly disclosed.
