Now Available! An Introduction to Local Government Ethics
Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013

More and more each year, the City Ethics website has been the go-to
place for local government ethics information. First a blog, then a
Model Ethics Code, and then a huge resource book. Thousands of pages of
useful information. What more could anyone ask for?
How about clearing away some of the debris? In other words, a short introduction to local government ethics. An explanation of what it is and what it isn't. A summary of the basic concepts. A description of the key elements of a local government ethics program.
So that's what I've produced. With Local Government Ethics Program in a Nutshell, you can take a quick stroll down the Main Street of local government ethics. It's only 27 pages (29 on the page-numbered PDF), and it's intended for someone who knows little or nothing about the topic.
Just like its big brother, Nutshell is available free in four digital formats, for reading online or downloading onto your favorite contraption.
So click here, and take a look. And pass the word to everyone you know who might be interested, including local government officials and employees, government attorneys, public administration students (and professors), journalists, ethics commission members, and ethics reformers. This is the quickest, easiest way for them to understand what local government ethics is all about.
