Board of Ethics
Background
In March 2019, the Township Board of Trustees adopted the Ethics Policy of the Charter Township of Clinton. The policy provides minimum standards of conduct for elected and appointed officials. It includes limits of gifts, the use of Township property for non-business purposes, and provisions to prevent conflict of interest in voting and contracting.
This page is a resource for Township officials as well as the public.
