TEC Opinion Sought on City Authority to Enforce Election Code

Earlier today, the Frisco PAC sent a formal request for an opinion to the Texas Ethics Commission (TEC) seeking clarification on the responsibilities of enforcement of provisions of the Texas Election Code by the City Secretary, City Manager, and/or the City Council.

This opinion stems from an inquiry made to the City Secretary in regards to her authority to enforce provisions of the Election Code’s requirements for campaign finance reporting. The view expressed by the City Secretary suggested that in her capacity as the city’s election official, that she was not authorized to enforce these provisions. This position was supported by the city attorney, as advised through a response by Mayor Jeff Cheney.

The Frisco PAC is seeking clarification based on the state law and the City’s Ordinances to determine if there is a misunderstanding on this matter.
