Sec. 11-74.6-18.
If any member of the corporate authority, a member of a
commission
established under subsection (l) of Section 11-74.6-15, or an employee
or consultant of the municipality involved in the planning, analysis,
preparation or administration
of a redevelopment plan, or project for a redevelopment project area or
proposed redevelopment project area, as defined in Section 11-74.6-10,
owns or controls any interest, direct or indirect, in any property included in
any redevelopment
area, or proposed redevelopment area, he or she shall disclose that
interest in writing to the clerk of the municipality, and shall also so
disclose the dates, terms and conditions of any disposition of that
interest. These disclosures shall be acknowledged by the corporate
authorities and entered upon the official records and files of the corporate
authorities. If an individual holds such an interest, then that individual
shall refrain from any further official involvement, in regard to the
redevelopment plan, project or area, from voting on any matter pertaining
to that redevelopment plan, project or area, or communicating with other
members, corporate authorities, commissions, employees or consultants of the
municipality concerning any
matter pertaining to that redevelopment plan, project or area. No member
or employee shall acquire any interest, direct or indirect, in any property
in a redevelopment area or proposed redevelopment area after either the
individual obtains knowledge of that plan, project or area, or, after the
first public notice of that plan, project or area under Section 11-74.6-25,
whichever occurs first.
For the purposes of this Section, a month-to-month leasehold interest
shall not be deemed to constitute an interest in any property included in any
redevelopment area or proposed redevelopment area.
