Posted By gaethics On April 15, 2011 @ 3:12 pm In Lobbyist Questions | No Comments
There are three types of local level lobbyists:
- Any person who is paid, either individually or part of his / her salary, specifically to take any action to promote / oppose the passage of any ordinance or resolution at the City or County level; and who spends more than 10% of his / her working hours doing this, including time spent in planning, researching, or preparing for such activities
- If the person has just one employer = 10% of all time worked for that employer.
- If more than one employer or more than one client = 10 % applied separately with respect to time spent working for each employer and each client.
- Any employee of the executive or judicial branch of local government who is paid, either individually or part of his / her salary, specifically to take any action to promote / oppose the passage of any ordinance or resolution at the City or County level ; and who spends more than 10% of his / her working hours doing this, including time spent in planning, researching, or preparing for such activities
- Any person who spends a total of more than $1,000.00 in a calendar year (not including his / her own travel, food, lodging expenses, or informational material) to promote / oppose the passage of any ordinance or resolution at the City or County level
