If the date of termination falls within a reporting period, even one day, you are required to file an Updated Registration Statement for that reporting period. If you terminate an engagement at the beginning or in the middle of a reporting period, you may file your Updated Registration Statement at the time of termination, you are not required to wait until the end of the reporting period. It is suggested that this method is followed to insure the filing of the Updated Registration Statement is not forgotten. You are not required to report campaign contributions made to a public official on your Updated Registration Statement, and a member of the Council is not prohibited from soliciting or accepting a campaign contribution, if the contribution is reported in a campaign finance report under Chapter 117, Cincinnati Municipal Code. Also included in the Updated Registration Statement is a Financial Transaction Statement.
