Statement of Economic Interests for website
<p>I have purchased a Domain name and am planning to build a website for the domain name. I have not published a website yet. I have not received any funds for building the website or business. I also have not formed a business entity. I live and work in California. Here is my question:</p>
<p>I am employed by a government organization, so do I need to report this activity in Statement of Economic Interests?</p>

<p>It depends on one's particular circumstances, as merely being employed by a government organisation isn't enough on its own to warrant a Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700).</p>
<p>As an example of what those circumstances may be, this from LA County's <a href="https://bos.lacounty.gov/services/conflict-of-interest-lobbyist/statement-of-economic-interest/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Board of Supervisors</a> stipulates that state and local government officials:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>publicly disclose their personal assets and income that may be <strong>materially affected</strong> by their official acts.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>And agency employees, including some public officials who are designated in a conflict of interest code, are required to disclose:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>certain financial interests <strong>according to the disclosure categories</strong> assigned to that position in their agency's conflict of interest code.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>And certain public officials, including public officials who manage public investments:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>are required to disclose <strong>all financial interest.</strong></p>
</blockquote>
