Abstract
The question of whether a town council member has an economic interest in a zoning issue before his government entity must be answered on a case-by-case basis. In the situation outlined, the town council member has an economic interest; however, it is no greater than other members of the class of property owners, and the town council member does not need to recuse himself, pursuant to Sections 8-13-100(11) and 8-13-700(B).
