I serve on the board of directors of a not-for-profit organization that is requesting City funding for an after-school program. May I vote on a community board resolution supporting this request?
No! Public servants are permitted to serve as officers or directors of not-for-profit entities that are interested in business dealings with the City, provided that they take no direct or indirect part in such business dealings. So, the community board member may not vote on the funding request by the not-for-profit group.
