Elected officials in Anaheim in the New Year are slated to create an ethics officer position to oversee campaign finance laws, public records requests and a host of other good government practices in the wake of Orange County’s largest public corruption scandals this century.
“The Ethics Officer’s role would be to promote public confidence in the integrity of local government and its operation,” reads the staff report.
Their action comes as city council members are also expected to discuss potentially reforming their campaign finance laws next year after FBI agents and independent, city-hired investigators found the very Disneyland resort interests that heavily fund campaigns essentially control City Hall.
