Advisory opinion that the Code of Governmental Ethics does not prohibit the City of Kenner from maintaining Acacia Financial Group, LLC (Acacia) as its Agent of Record for employee health insurance benefits, which is owned by the father of Dominick Impastato, who serves as a councilmember of the Kenner City Council, as long as the appointment is not renewed or the terms changed. Further, the Code of Ethics prohibits Dominick Impastato from participating in any matter regarding the selection of health insurance providers or approval of health insurance provider contracts while his father is the Agent of Record for employee health insurance benefits for the City of Kenner. Finally the Code of Ethics requires the father to file an annual disclosure report with the Board of Ethics.
