CONCLUSION <br /> The Board concluded, and instructed me to inform you,that all of the requirements of 1123(34)(a) <br /> —(f) must be met in order for the exception to apply to prevent a violation of 1113B.Additionally, <br /> the appointed member of the Parish Commission must recuse himself from any debate,discussion, <br /> or vote on any matter which would be a violation of Section 1112. Further, the public servant's <br /> recusal pursuant to 1120.4 does not cure a potential violation of 1113 where the requirements of <br /> the exception in 1123(34) are not met. <br /> The Board further noted that with each of these questions, any analysis as to a specific public <br /> servant is highly fact specific as to whether a violation of the Code may occur. Each public servant <br /> should request an advisory opinion regarding their specific circumstances. <br /> This advisory opinion is based solely on the facts as set forth herein. Changes to the facts as pre- <br /> sented may result in a different application of the provisions of the Code of Governmental Ethics. <br /> The Board issues no opinion as to past conduct and or to laws other than the Code of Governmental <br /> Ethics, the Campaign Finance Disclosure Act, the Lobbyist Disclosure Acts, and the conflict of <br /> interest provisions contained in the Louisiana Gaming Control Law. <br /> If you have any questions,please contact me at (800) 842-6630 or(225) 219-5600. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> LOUISIANA BOARD OF ETHICS <br /> ' _J-'� 0.,—Q <br /> David M. Bordelon <br /> For the Board <br /> Page 6 of 6 (BD 2021-882B) <br />
