Government Reform & Ethics

 
 

No lying.
No cheating.
No stealing.

As a San José resident, you need to have confidence in the Mayor’s Office. The special interest groups, the lobbyists, the influence peddlers, and the fixers will not run city hall.

 
Reed Reforms
The 34 Reed Reforms are the cornerstone on which to build San Jose into an exceptional city. As of March 25, 2008, 30 reforms have been adopted and 4 reforms remain open.
 
Lobbyist Regulations
You have a right to know who is meeting with City Officials. An updated lobbyist ordinance has taken effect. Click here to view the calendars of the Mayor, Councilmembers, and each Chief of Staff.
Biennial Ethics Review. The Mayor conducts a biennial review to help ensure that City conducts its business in an open, fair, and ethical manner. The City's Code of Ethics and related policies and ordinances are reviewed with any necessary updates or revisions brought to the City Council for approval.
 
Sunshine Reform Task Force:

The Sunshine Reform Task Force is committed to open, transparent government. On August 21, 2007, the City Council approved, as recommended by the Rules Committee, the Sunshine Reform Task Force (SRTF) Phase I Report & Recommendations for Closed Session (Council and RDA only), and Public Information, and directed staff to proceed with implementation on a pilot basis.
