"It makes one wonder why a public official made certain decisions, especially ones that benefited certain interests, when just days, months or years later they take a lucrative job lobbying for the same interests."
Craig Holman, a government affairs expert at Public Citizen, commenting on Scott McInnis' voting record, as quoted in The Denver Post, 07/25/2010.

Ethics Watch Submits Comments On Proposed Revisions To Denver Ethics Code

City and County of Denver
July 16, 2009

At the invitation of the Denver Board of Ethics, Ethics Watch submitted today comments on a draft of the Board's proposed revisions to the Code of Ethics for Denver officers, officials and employees.

Denver passed its first Code of Ethics in 1965.  The Code of Ethics was revised in 2001 and 2004.  The Denver Board of Ethics is currently in the process of preparing revisions to the Code of Ethics to be proposed to City Council.  As part of that effort, the Board of Ethics invited Ethics Watch to submit comments on a June 2009 draft of proposed revisions.  Ethics Watch's comments focus on conflict of interest situations under Board of Ethics jurisdiction and may be viewed at the link on the right side of the page.  The Ethics Board will consider Ethics Watch's comments at its July 23, 2009 meeting.
