Gov. Code § 84308 Regulations: To promote transparency and fairness in the governmental decision-making process, there are rules to prevent public officials from being unfairly influenced by contributors to their campaigns. The type of activity these laws were enacted to limit is often referred to as “pay-to-play,” and is governed in California by Government Code section 84308. Parties to any proceedings involving a “license, permit, or other entitlement for use,” as that term is defined in the Political Reform Act, pending before the City Council must disclose any campaign contribution over $500 (aggregated) within the preceding 12 months made by the party, their agent, and those required to be aggregated with their contributions under Gov. Code § 82015.5. The disclosure must include the amount contributed and the name(s) of the contributor(s). "G.C. § 84308 Regulations Apply: Yes" on this agenda indicates that the item is subject to these regulations.
