Section 150:15-9-9 - Unethical conduct per se The following practices are considered unethical conduct per se by the Oklahoma Department of Commerce.
(1) Certified CDBG Administrators shall not enter into contracts with an applicant offering to prepare an application to ODOC for CDBG funding assistance with the understanding that no fee for preparing the application will be charged if that administrator is selected to administer the project. Administrators shall enter into a separate contract for the preparation of the application if the Administrator wishes to be paid. The previous contract and/or fee shall have no impact on the fee negotiated between the Administrators and the city, town, or county the Administrator is negotiating with. (2) All CDBG award recipients are to procure their CDBG Administrators from the list of certified CDBG Administrators, unless the recipient wishes to self-administer the project. Any attempt by a certified CDBG administrator to influence the selection of the certified CDBG administrator by the recipient of the CDBG award is unethical conduct. Okla. Admin. Code § 150:15-9-9
