Thank you for visiting the Palm Beach County Commission on Ethics Website.  It is a tremendous honor to serve the people of Palm Beach County.  At the commission, we are dedicated to providing you accurate, easy to understand information about the ethics laws governing Palm Beach County.  I hope you find our website convenient and useful.

The Ethics Commission receives and investigates complaints and is charged with enforcement of the Palm Beach County Code of Ethics, Lobbyist registration and Post Employment Ordinances.  The commission also issues advisory opinions to county officials, employees and others subject to its jurisdiction such as county vendors, lobbyists and their employers.

The commission is composed of five members appointed by various civic, educational and professional associations.  The position of commissioner is nonpartisan and nonpolitical.  The key to our ethics commission is independence.  I invite you to find out more about us and to take an active role in the new ethics movement for Palm Beach County.
