Last Wednesday, Mayor Todd Gloria signed a resolution enacting the City of San Diego’s first Code of Conduct for its boards, commissions, and committees. The City of San Diego’s Office of Boards and Commissions was created in 2018 to support the day-to-day operations of the City’s 44 boards and commissions to serve as an access point to the volunteer members appointed by the Mayor and City Council. 

Under the leadership of the Director of Appointments/Boards and Commissions, Chida Warren-Darby, these entities serve in a fiduciary, regulatory, policy-setting, and/or advisory capacity. 

“This Code of Conduct was two years in the making. I’m grateful for the guidance of my Deputy City Attorney and other City staff who worked tirelessly to get this drafted, approved by all nine Councilmembers, and on the Mayor’s desk for signing. This document ensures that our almost 500 volunteer advisors can serve to the best of their abilities,” shared Warren-Darby.
