During the “Code of Silence”, campaign contributions, gifts, donations, loans, and any other items of value are prohibited between these parties, including candidates who have filed for election to the Board.

Board Policy BBFA (Local)) • Board Policy CAA (Local) pertaining to the “Code of Silence” and Board Policy BBFA (Local) pertaining to “Conflicts of Interest Disclosures” are attached by URL link above and incorporated by reference. Please review the policies carefully and ensure that the policies are followed in all respects.
