§ 77261 Pepper Commission Public Members

• •Public members on the commission have the same powers as other members.
• •Public members cannot have any money tied to the pepper industry.
• •This rule is to keep things fair and avoid conflicts of interest.

A person is chosen to be a public member on a commission that makes decisions about the pepper industry.

This person can vote and make decisions just like everyone else on the commission, but they cannot own a pepper farm or have any money invested in pepper businesses. This keeps things fair.
