Failure to comply with required actions may result in the employee's termination. Behavior which results in repeated conflicts of interest, or the repeated appearance of conflicts, may also be the basis of an employee's termination.

If a conflict regards a matter that is or will come before the board, the trustee will not participate in any discussion or vote regarding the matter or in any way influence the discussion or vote of the board. All other conflicts and potential conflicts will be reviewed by the chair of the board of trustees or his/her designee, and specific resolutions may be suggested to or required of the trustee.
