Im worried were talking past each other between the recommendation and the proposed recommendation certainly. As we look to the number of the ethnics laws and Campaign Laws and things of that nature we thought about how we terminator them and think about how their trermentd we often look to the statements of purpose that were put into the laws and things to e things of that nature. Proposal j had this concept of reich what people, you know, in terms of if someone was getting a Public Benefit from the city and this could be a zoning change or a contract, it could be a lot of things were restricted from giving Campaign Donations to officials that decide on that benefit. So it was an interesting campfire concept from an implementation standpoint but there were a number the recommendations we listed them in the report. Im trying to find the right place i know we have a whole thing on 7 and 27. 78 you have the actual ballot measure on 78. We have a finding that d disposition of interests it
Addressed from findings one through 28 . I think the major outstanding issue i guess is that in its form that it is in the Los Angeles Superior Court said it was unconstitutionally board no one took the challenge further so thats the one legal precedent we have to go on. Were not talking abouty adapting it but looking at if theres anything that is useful for San Francisco that would be draft to be not unconstitutional and is that or have we tried that. Not that im aware of. Is there any reason not to do it heights not rhetorical. Theres no reason not to look at prop j it does speak to something that prop a e was passed and prop j passed it is a bit odd going back 10 years to revisit the issue i certainly wouldnt want i think it would be advisable to look at that but in terms of what is effective to our campaign lobbying laws not to limit ourselves quite frankly Campaign Laws have changed and Supreme Court rulings have changed. I certainly know t think it is great to inform our Decision
Report that is helpful to the public here are the requirements those are new and those are not new andtolysis will the one pending it could be an important part of the legislation i would ask you to do an unanimous report we know find nothing that was recorded to the board of supervisors in terms of the effectiveness of the laws and what was happening with them. Id again saying its worthwhile to think about an annual report. Thanks larry bush from the civil grand jury just to clarify this is not the not to my knowledge report this is a special report specified in the charter you are to report to the board and mayor on the focusness of San Francisco ethnics laws there are issues having to do this and theyve not been recorded for example, of the march 2008 memo outlining the problems you found and adapting new policies about enforcement is an example never report to the board or public. In which changed the enforcement policies of the department. So i think it would be a really good idea
