Any elected or appointed official may submit a written request to the City Attorney for an advisory opinion regarding whether their own proposed actions or conduct would violate a provision of this Article. The official shall have the opportunity to present the official’s interpretation of the facts at issue and of the applicability of provisions of this Article before such advisory opinion is made. When determining if there is clear and convincing evidence that an official who is the subject of the alleged violation violated a provision of this Article, the Independent Counsel shall presume that the official did not violate a provision of this Article if the official has received an advisory opinion and acted in accordance with its provisions.
