A company owned by an alderman’s financially independent brother-in-law may serve as a vendor to the city. If the alderman and the brother-in-law are indeed financially independent, no violation of Section 109, Miss. Const. of 1890, or Section 25-4-105(2), Miss. Code of 1972, should occur. However, the alderman must recuse himself or herself from any matter which would result in a pecuniary benefit to the brother-in-law’s business to comply with Section 25-4-105(1).
