Wall Lake City Council to start separating bills to avoid conflicts of interest

September 26, 2011 – Wall Lake, Iowa
A recent trend in government is to have elected and appointed officials who have a conflict of interest abstain from voting on items on which they have a conflict of interest.

It was determined that a conflict of interest exists for Wall Lake Councilors Potthoff and Riedell in regards to the bills submitted by the Wall Lake Fire Department because they are fire fighters. This was handled by having those particular bills separated and approved separately the vote from which both Potthoff and Riedell abstained.

After a short discussion period in which the city clerk explained some other notable bills and was directed to delete the bill for the Iowa Labor Poster Service, the bills for payment were approved unanimously
