Title

Municipal employees; eligible to receive grant funds paid through municipal treasury in certain circumstances

Description

Under existing law, an officer or employee of a municipality, directly or indirectly, may not have an interest in any work, business, or contract paid from the municipal treasury.

This bill would authorize an employee to receive funds from a grant program ultimately paid through the municipal treasury if the funds received are similar and in a like manner to other recipients and the employee is not involved in the decision-making for eligibility for grant program funds.

This bill would also update language to current drafting style.
