Conflicts arising from outside employment by nonprofit

May a City employee take official action that would affect the financial interest of an entity that is a funder of a non-profit of which the City employee is a paid employee?

No. The City employee would have a financial interest with regard to the funder and therefore a conflict of interest in any official action that would affect the funder.
