Report on Annual Reports III

There's a national local government annual ethics report that is
worthwhile taking a look at. It comes from the International
City/County Management Association (ICMA), the professional
organization of city, county, and town managers. To my knowledge, no
other local government executive or legislative professional
organization allows ethics complaints to be brought against its members
and enforces its code.<br>

Its annual report on its ethics program can be found by clicking at the
bottom of the <a href="http://www.icma.org/main/bc.asp?bcid=75&hsid=1&ssid1=2530&ssid2=2716&qu…; target="”_blank”">ICMA
Program Highlights page</a>. The report details the conduct that led to
censures against members during 2007, as well as looking at a variety
of current ethics issues relevant to managers as well as to other local
government officials and employees.<br>
