however i think in addition to the disability factor, i think there is one other thing that gives an edge to mr. wolfe, and that is, as you know, at this time, the committee on information technology and the department of technology are attempting to consolidate and upgrade the citys electronic record system with respect to storage backup and retrievable. and this is an area where the task force is -- as you can imagine, very interested. and mr. wolfe has long experience in information...

san francisco and what needs to be done. >> chair kim: thank you very much. have you attended a sunshine task force meeting before, prior to today? >> no. this is my very first one. >> chair kim: okay. just for clarification, today is the rules committee meeting. the sunshine task force is a committee of citizens that the rules committee gets to make a recommendation to, who do appoint, which then goes to the full board. but this is not a sunshine task force. >> right. yes. i was readi...

need to go as well, and ive mentioned this as the ethics commission, ive mentioned this at the board of supervisors, before you went out on break. i call out to san francisco, and im speaking to the television audience at this point, to please organize saturday morning meetings in your home so we can organize the whole city quickly in order to execute the recall of the machine here in san francisco. my own sunshine case no. 12033 cannot go forward because the sunshine task force is not...

>> ive been a grassroots worker since the last decade since 2002 when i worked on the animal guardian ordinance. ive known bruce wolfe for eight of those years. and i want to take a little bit of a different course here. i dont think that this hearing is a place to use for any side to accuse any other side of misdealing, or playing games, or, you know, he said, she said. i think this hearings a place to decide on who the best person is to next seat on this body. ive watched bruce wolfe...

absurd and arbitrary to petty and punitive. its completely shut down. youre denying us the rights to open government. the inability of this committee not to recognize one member of the task force needed to be physically disabled is until now unacceptable and inexcusable. its your job to know what the requirements are when you put forth appointees to these petitions. your attempt to replace members to the board your uninformed or green cronies or supporters, some documents that are requ...

for the 99%. and if the one shows up, them too. one of the great critiques that the average person has about government is that government isnt working and we dont know why. so we need greater public access to critical government information and thats one of the things the sunshine ordinance task force is very good at. i know that if kai wilson forsley is appointed nothing will get in the publics way of getting this information because shes breaking down critical information for us eve...

some of the supervisor pick 4 may have done an outstanding job. i have an officer here who is a subject matter expert in court over time. she has taken over the responsibility of in putting every over time card for the department. it injures more accountability and making sure we are following all policies of our department. if you have any questions -- supervisor campos: no, thank you. i appreciate that the chief has inherited this. it is unfortunate that we are where we are, but we n...

inherited this. it is unfortunate that we are where we are, but we need to focus on moving forward, making sure we have these systems in place. we are talking about premium pay, overtime pay. those are important issues. i think we need to make sure that we monitor it as closely as we can. thank you very much. i think that concludes the presentations, unless there is a department that i left out? why dont we now open it up to public comment is there anyone from the public that would lik...

it is really surprising that we do not even know who was overseeing this function within the police department. it is a pretty basic function, right? the city comptroller makes recommendations on how to improve issues that are important. even if there was not the kind of follow up that you wanted, i imagine someone was looking at that. i do not know if it is someone in the administrative bureau -- >> my suspicion is that it was handled by the former chief of staff, who is retired. i do...
