Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 18730, and any amendments

hereby incorporated by reference and constitute the conflict of interest code of the
City of Chula Vista.

not required by law to be governed under the City's Conflict of Interest Code.
For those Boards and Commissions not required by law to be governed under the
City's Conflict of Interest Code, the City Council declares that citizens serving as
volunteers on those Boards and Commissions shall not be required to complete and
submit Statements of Economic Interest and shall not be required to disqualify
themselves from deliberations or decision making for economic reasons.
