§ 1548. Interested members or employes
No member or employe of an Authority shall acquire any interest, direct or indirect, in any housing project or in any property included or planned to be included in any project, nor shall he have any interest, direct or indirect, in any contract or proposed contract for materials or services to be furnished or used in connection with any housing project. If any member or employe of an Authority owns or controls an interest, direct or indirect, in any property included or planned to be included in any housing project of the Authority, or has any such interest in any contract for material or services to be furnished or used in connection with any housing project, he shall immediately disclose the same in writing to the Authority, and such disclosure shall be entered in writing upon the minute books of the Authority. Failure so to disclose such interest shall constitute misconduct in office. Any such undisclosed profit, which results to any member or employe of an Authority, shall render such member or employe liable to surcharge in favor of the Authority to the full amount of such profit. Such profit need not be realized in order to fall within the meaning of this section. Proceedings to surcharge any member or employe may be instituted by an Authority or by the State Planning Board on its behalf with or without its consent.
