Jurisdictional Contact Responsibilities
A person designated by a public body as defined in ORS 174.109, is considered a Jurisdictional Contact (JC). JCs are responsible for explaining the requirements of ORS 244.050, ORS 244.060, ORS 244.070 and ORS 244.090 to each newly elected or appointed public official serving the public body who is required to file a verified statement of economic interest (SEI) report under ORS 244.050.
The JC's role also includes maintaining an up-to-date listing of their public officials in OGEC's Electronic Filing System (EFS).
February 15th Deadline
JCs must verify that the listing is up-to-date by clicking on the "Finalize List" button in their EFS account by February 15th of each year.
