Iowa Code r. 351-7.3 - Procedure for determining persons required to file with the board-distribution of forms
(1)
Persons required by statute. In order to determine which
persons in the executive branch are required by Iowa Code section
68B.35(2) to
file Form PFD, the board shall contact each agency on an annual basis and
provide notification of the statutory requirement. This notification shall
include the name and position title of each person in the agency who filed Form
PFD the previous year. Each agency, in consultation with the board, shall then
determine which persons are required to file Form PFD for the next filing
period and shall provide the board with the appropriate names and position
titles. The board shall have the final authority to determine whether a
position requires that a Form PFD be filed.
(2)
Boards, commissions, or
authorities not named in statute. Pursuant to Iowa Code section
68B.35(2)
"e," on an annual basis the board shall conduct a review to
determine if a member of any other board, commission, or authority not
specifically named in Iowa Code section
68B.35(2)
"e" should file Form PFD. If the board determines that Form
PFD should be filed, the board shall by rule require a Form PFD to be
filed.
(3)
Statewide
candidates. A person who is a candidate for statewide office shall
electronically file Form PFD with the board by 11:59 p.m. on April 30 of the
year the candidate appears on the ballot. If the due date falls on a weekend or
holiday, the filing deadline shall be extended to the first working day
following the deadline. Once nomination papers or an affidavit of candidacy is
filed, the board shall notify the person of the requirement to file Form PFD.
The notification shall be sent by first-class mail or E-mail and shall include
information on how to file Form PFD electronically.
(4)
Statewide candidates in a special
election. A candidate for statewide office in a special election shall
electronically file Form PFD with the board within ten days after the
certification of the candidate's name as the nominee under Iowa Code section
43.88. Notification to a
statewide candidate in a special election shall be sent by first-class mail or
E-mail and shall include information on how to file Form PFD
electronically.
(5)
Distribution of link. The board shall provide each agency with
the link on the board's Web site at www.iowa.gov/ethics where forms shall be
filed electronically.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 68B.32A(5) and 68B.35.
