grand jury report, this ethics commission has failed to carry out and responsibilities related to the sunshine ordinance. through this, the ethics committee has sided with the city and against citizens in every case where public records were withheld. not only has this ethics commission failed in its duties, in as woefully and knowingly avoided the efforts of the sunshine ordinance task force. it has done this for years while representing its efforts as trying to work with the task force. it has been derelict in its duties by allowing every case to be dismissed by staff without a hearing. after taking an oath to support and defend the california and united states constitutions, the committee has acted in ways that knowingly and willfully violate the constitutional and civil rights of the citizens of san francisco. some may feel that i am being too harsh in this, but i think prior speakers and myself have to really look at the records, and for the first time, we are now on the
analyst recommendation, but it makes sense to bring it back to after we of the study so we can tell you what the percentage is and what the administrative fee is. the do madam chair and memberf the committee, there is nothing in the agreement that legally fines of the study to be done. i understand miss williams stated that part agrees they will do the study, but you are reproving a 10-year agreement and there is nothing legally binding it. our reading of the agreement means there is nothing legally binding that there would be this study. after the study, bart has to agree to the amount, and the amount can be done without board of supervisors oversight. it could go down. as you point out, it is very low now. the 5 percent signed is not even based on an actual, it is based on another agreement with mta pays bart 5 percent signed factor. it is not based on any objective cost data. i guess my concern is i believe the board should maintain fiscal oversight over this agreement, a
contract s going forward would reflect those changes? it does not sound like that would be a difficult thing to amend. in terms of sending a letter to you this was enough to go back to the bart board for approval. in terms of the cost sharing agreement, we want to do that now. we can send you a letter indicating that we agree to do that and that bart has agreed to do the cost sharing analysis of you know that is happening, and then we can report back to you after that is done. my apologies for being late. this was a concern to me. i missed some of this, but is there a commitment to do this study 2012? that is something we could amend in this resolution. you could amend it in terms of the resolution. in your resolution, absolutely. we have every intention to do this study and we have gotten bart sap to agree to do the study. supervisor chu: i would feel more comfortable having that here. the last study was done in 1994. the last it is a percentage. i agree with you
