Form 806 – Public Official Appointments

The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) requires each agency to post a single Form 806 (FPPC Regulation 18705.5 amended March 2012). Form 806 reports additional compensation that officials receive when appointed to positions on other boards or committees of a public agency, special district, and joint power agency/authorities.  Each agency must post a single Form 806 listing all paid appointed positions including the date appointed, length of term, and stipend.
