Last Wednesday, Mayor Todd Gloria signed a resolution enacting the City of San Diegoโ€™s first Code of Conduct for its boards, commissions, and committees. The City of San Diegoโ€™s Office of Boards and Commissions was created in 2018 to support the day-to-day operations of the Cityโ€™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. 

โ€œThis Code of Conduct was two years in the making. Iโ€™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 Mayorโ€™s desk for signing. This document ensures that our almost 500 volunteer advisors can serve to the best of their abilities,โ€ shared Warren-Darby.
