It is declared to be against public policy for any officer or employee of a city to acquire any interest direct or indirect in any parking facilities or related properties or any commercial enterprise connected or incidental thereto, or to have any interest direct or indirect in any contract or proposed contract related to or affecting parking facilities, unless said officer or employee shall first disclose the same in writing to the governing body of the city. Such disclosures shall be entered upon the minutes of the governing body of the city.
Upon such disclosure, such officer or employee shall not participate in any action by the city affecting such property or contract. The failure so to disclose such interest shall constitute misconduct in office, and the governing body may take such action with reference to any such contract or interest as it may deem advisable. Any such contract or interest shall be void at the election of the governing body.
