What is a Disclosure?

  • Disclosure  is for an approved activity that has occurred (in the past) or is occurring. It also covers outside activities and interests such as substantial interest in a business entity or gifts over $ 250, which may be a conflict of interest.    
    • a disclosure also covers family members 
    • any substantial interest in a business entity should be disclosed no later than 30 days after acquiring the interest.
  • When in doubt in determining whether an activity or interest should be disclosed, the individual should resolve the doubt in favor of disclosure.  
  • Disclosure Season occurs annually from January through March; however disclosures can be submitted at any time.

WHere Do I create my disclosure?

Disclosures for Outside Activity (approved and conducted) are submitted annually during Disclosure Season through the Outside Activity Portal. Disclosures are made by calendar year and always for the previous year.
