The Board concluded, and instructed me to inform you, that ASP is prohibited from selling <br /> products bearing the City logo to third parties while Mr. Rolling serves on the City Council and <br /> receives compensation from ASP. <br /> Question 3: The final purchaser is irrelevant because to the extent the license of the logo <br /> represents a business relationship between ASP and the City, the analysis under <br /> Question 2 applies, and any compensation paid to Mr. Rolling would be a violation <br /> of Section 1111 C(2)(d) and Section 1117. <br /> The Board concluded, and instructed me to inform you, that ASP is prohibited from selling <br /> products bearing the City logo to City employees while Mr. Rolling serves on the City Council and <br /> receives compensation from ASP. <br /> Question 4: The reimbursement of a city employee would represent a transaction separate from the <br /> exchange of the logo between the City and ASP. These transactions would represent <br /> neither a transaction nor a business relationship between the City and ASP.However, <br /> neither the City nor Mr. Rolling should direct employees to use the services of ASP. <br /> However,under Question 3,the initial sale from ASP to the City employee would be <br /> prohibited. <br /> The Board concluded, and instructed me to inform you, that ASP is prohibited from selling <br /> products bearing the City logo to City employees while Mr. Rolling serves on the City Council and <br /> receives compensation from ASP. <br /> Question 5: Insufficient information was provided to determine the nature of the relationship <br /> between ASP, as a subcontractor, and the City. If this subcontract relationship is <br /> pursued, a more specific request should be submitted. However, to the extent this <br /> work involves ASP performing work using the logo licensed to ASP by the City,the <br /> analysis under Question 2 applies, and any compensation paid to Mr. Rolling would <br /> be a violation of Section 1111C(2)(d) and Section 1117. <br /> The Board concluded, and instructed me to inform you, that ASP is prohibited from <br /> performing subcontract work involving the City logo while Mr. Rolling serves on the City Council <br /> and receives compensation from ASP. <br />
