IN RE: REVISED PROPOSED NACo CODE OF ETHICS FOR COUNTY OFFICIALS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Ceairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the National Associatioe of Counties board of Directors is proposing to establish
a policy outlining a code of ethics for public officials; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners encourages and supports proper anC
ethical conduct on the part of all elected officials,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners supports the
NACo Board of Directors' proposed establishment and recommends that it's May 20, 1991 proposed Code
of Ethics be amended and ultimately adopted in the form set forth below;
PROPOSED CODE OF ETHICS
FOR COUNTY OFFICIALS
The National Association of Counties (NACo) is committed to the highest standards of
conduct among county officials in the performance of their public duties. Adherence to high ethical
standards by public officials is central to the maintenance of public trust and confidence in
government. Eacn county official should recognize that his or her mission is that of servant and
steward to the public.
The proper discharge of trust 40 behalf of another, whether public or private, invariably
involves potential conflicts of interest and competing loyalty and policy considerations. This code
of ethics is meant to provide guidance in such cases. which must ultimately always be decided by the
dictates of the individual conscience of the public official and his or her commitment to the public
good.
Certain of these ethical principles are best expressed as positive statements: actions
which shoula be taken; courses which should be followed; goals that should permeate both public and
private conduct. Other peineiples are expressed as negative statements: actions to be avoided and
conduct to be condemned.
The Code of Ethics for County Officials has been created by and for elected county
officials. To the extent permitted by applicable law, these principles also apply to the day to day
conduct of both elected and appointed officials and employees of county government.
The National Association of Counties (NACo) endorses this code of ethics as a valuable
guide for all in whom the public has placed its trust.
