Sec. 24.01. - Policy.
The public judges its government by the way its public officials and employees conduct themselves in the posts to which they are elected or appointed. City officials and employees hold positions of public trust under the scrutiny of public opinion, and their actions must be above suspicion. The public has a right to expect that city officials and employees will conduct themselves in a manner that will preserve public confidence in and respect for government. In order to continue the public confidence and the integrity of governmental officials and to promote trust of the people in the objectivity of their public servants, this code of ethics for public officials and employees of the City of Saint Paul is adopted.
