  2. has given an officer of the District, or a family member of the officer, one or more gifts with the aggregate value specified in §176.003, excluding any gift described in the same section.
Statements must be filed within 7 business days after the vendor becomes aware that a conflict of interest exists. Vendors are reminded that this form is only required to be submitted if an actual conflict exists. District personnel are not able to provide legal advice to vendors on this or any other legal matter.
