from multiple parties on this issue as well and i have to express my honesty, i feel very conflicted on this issue. i do not really want to have a voice on whether the battleship should be named in the name of harvey milk. it is not clear to me, what he would have wanted. it is a tough call. i am glad to see that there is a healthy discussion. i really appreciate this argument that many of our lgbt community members who served in the military in the closet, the experience that they had...

different role, or with a different rule -- a different view on the task force. i think that attitude is healthy. i think it is important to have diversity so that we promote compliance. the first thing i would do on the task force is to change the bylaws with respect to section 104.4. i believe it was inappropriate and unwise, etc. the second is to strengthen the procedures related to handling of complaints. and that leads to the third point, which is to strengthen our work on the out...

i am a process and procedures geek. thats what i do. i dont like to hear people say, well, weve never done it this way or this is how we always do it. no, you have to -- that said, i think you have to stay within -- we have city charters, we have the constitution for a reason. you have to stay within the rules of the game. i keep hearing supervisor kim and campos and farrell saying, well, you change the rules and youve changed the voting -- you know, thats almost a red herring. im look...

time ive seen this come before us but i would like to have had, as we do with every other seat, choices here, and these organizations to forward us multiple choices. not to anyone that came before us that we wouldnt select you going forward, but that we have a choice with these organizations. my preference would be to continue this and to have a choice and have the organizations put more than one forward. i make a motion to continue 1, 2, 4 and 5, to the call of the chair and subsequen...

hyland. he is a new face to city hall, an enthusiastic face. i know he would serve very well. he has a good background in legal matters and i think we need some new blood always to mix in with whoever is still remaining on a force and i would highly recommend him as a person that i think you would really appreciate and he could contribute a lot to city hall. thanks. >> hi, my name is michael nolte, executive director of alliance for better district six and our executive committee has r...

on the board of supervisors, the rules committee, the mayors office, that we are aware that is happening and if people are not showing up, then people need to be replaced. but legally, and in terms of the charter, the charter is the constitution of the people and city and county of san francisco. and that constitution cannot be set aside by any government body. it is unfortunate that happen to -- happened, certainly not something that any of us, legally or otherwise can act. cracks i h...

ms. miller, if you want to add anything? >> i just wanted to add, your interim executive officer, that in my memo to you, there is a date that is erroneous, which is that the matter would be going to the budget committee on february 1. that is no longer the case. were meeting with the advocates next week to try to sort out some issues with them. so the meeting for the budget committee will not be on february 1. it will be postponed until a later date. i also wanted to bring up this iss...

meeting. supervisor campos: i think this is connected directly to cca and that he would be helpful for staff to get a sense from this commission on what dates might work in terms of a joint meeting and maybe take a couple of days to survey the members of the commission or maybe today to find those states and submit something to the commission. >> that is great. if you could just give us that direction, that would be fabulous. commissioner campos: unless there is objection, i think that...

if we do not want it, we do not need to use it. perhaps it might make sense for you to direct us to date for the meeting. supervisor campos: i think this is connected directly to cca and that he would be helpful for staff to get a sense from this commission on what dates might work in terms of a joint meeting and maybe take a couple of days to survey the members of the commission or maybe today to find those states and submit something to the commission. >> that is great. if you could ...

importance of stopping this revolving door would be important for lafco to do. my preference would be to advocate for that five years that the examiner is asking for. i do not know what the process for that would be, but i think that it is important for us as lafco, one of the objectives of lafco is to promote good government, best practices, and i think that stopping that revolving door is basic good government. ms. miller, do you have any thoughts on that? >> jason fried, lafco staff...
