contract to do business with the District.
Disclosure is required from vendors regarding each affiliation or business relationship between the vendor and:
1. an officer of the District.
2. an officer of the District that results in the officer or family member receiving taxable income.
3. an officer of the District that results in the vendor receiving taxable income that does not come from the District.
