Background Material: Board Opinion 2018-001




This is part of an ongoing effort to add advisory opinions related to political activity as background material. These opinions may cover topics beyond the scope of Regulation 8, and/or may also be impacted by changes to the Charter and resulting amendments to Regulation 8. These opinions are provided here for reference purposes only. 

Board Opinion 2018-001 addresses the applicability of the City ethics rules, including the Charter's political activity restrictions, to members of the Board of Education and Educational Nominating Panel. Note that this opinion was superseded in part by the November 2019 amendments to Regulation 8, which determined that the Educational Nominating Panel is subject to Article X of the Charter. See Reg. 8 ¶ 8.15 (Effective Date Nov. 7, 2019).
