Is that we can only pass something that is identical to what the Ethics Commission passed. So to a certain extent making these amendments today is a little absurd if they are not taken in whole by the Ethics Commissioner tomorrow or in future meeting. Is that a correct understanding . Deputy City Attorney. Yes. In order to pass the ordinance or any ordinance amending the chapter, the board and the Ethics Commission must adopt the ordinants. The same ordinants.

And have at least those provisions that we are able to vote on and pass become Effective Immediately upon passage long before this would become operative work to go to the june ballot. As a threshold matter, i would like to ask the deputy City Attorney and Ethics Commission staff about the nature of this process because my understanding is that we can only pass something that is identical to what the Ethics Commission passed. So to a certain extent making these amendments today is a little absur...

Requirements among the contributions and this is just mirroring the staff recommendation to the conditions. Section 1. 127. The section which you have recommended to delete to the commission.
