Time regarding files in general. But for this particular case you. We have spent a lot of time on the files. I mean, in light that have representation, it is unclear to me what benefits is going to be derived from having her redo what has already been apparently closely done and there is no mechanism that we can provide to ensure any greater accuracy. Not like there is an encamera review procedure or anything. I am not sure what benefit is derived for her to going back and revaoe view the docume...

Commissioners . No objections. If we are going to go on for an extended time i would respectfully request a rest room break. But if you think that we will. That would prolong things undually. I was thinking that we would not need much additional time to get through the rest of this. But, i am happy to take a break. No. I dont want to make anybody uncomfortable. That is okay. The next item on the agenda is the annual report for 2011, 2012. Mr. St. Croix would you like to introduce this matter . I...

I thought that was an interesting play on how these people make these adjustments, half to create home. What is home for these people . The home is their cell. People talk a lot about noise very noisy in prisons. That is interesting to me. Looking at the communication level, the rise of frustration of being caged, wondering, where does redemption fit into the equation here . [singing] i think both of us really believe the Death Penalty is wrong, and is flawed for many reasons. The list is as lon...

Is beyond the investigatorry file itself and may include correspondence about the handling of the aspect and not the file itself and to the extent that any such records might exist, they to me, to my read might be subject to disclosure, albeit in a redacted form. I dont know if they exist, but that is my view on that with regard to any closing memo, if there was i dont know what the language of a closing memo offered by the Commission Staff regarding this complaint refers to. Again, if such a th...

Acting in the shoes executive director, determine herself the contents of those files . Why cant you carve out the time and you examine them . So that it is not a member of the staff filling in for something the Ethics Commission apparently doesnt want to do itself . You would rather have us review the documents . Is that your position . Absolutely. You could use a hearing officer. Sir, not i am going to hear from you. I am not going to hear from you, please, shut down. I want to object to one t...

Because we have not heard the whole presentation and asked the questions. Perhaps we can ask miss herrick if san jose was asked to take the whole matter and if that is something that they would even consider doing. I dont know whether the City Attorney staff person will be able to speak for the commission. Perhaps not. But perhaps she could answer the first question, at least. Unless we know, does anybody. Do you know that . Do you know . I believe that it was the City Attorneys office that was ...

Ethics commission can cannot investigate or take action on those, we have to defer them to the state. So we can levy five, and i dont understand. When the people file late, we can levy late fines, but if people falsify the documents, and dont report the things that they are supposed to or refused to file and that is out of our hands. Okay, that is all that i have for today. Any questions or comments . Well, interest to the hear about and you look at the variance, particularly your actuals compar...

Summary prepared in advance of this hearing and the findings of this commission are so predictable that it makes me feel clarvoyant and the only thing that i am clear on is whether it is covering the back sides or kissing them and again, what difference does it make, the end rault is the Ethics Commission finding in favor of the city and against the values and interest of the citizens of San Francisco. In this case the board of supervisors managed to discriminate against and violate the rights o...

You you have a ethical duty to not attempt to over turn an ordinance passed by the voters. And, that the board of supervisors has amended. And it would be as if this body is trying to usurp the powers of the board of supervisors this is clearly an outrageous recommendation from the staff, that you may not even have a when whiff of when you walked in here and your duty is to introduction a motion and say no dice, mr. St. Croix. And we will not vote on 3 b. We are going to throw it out. Thank you....

The sierra club and you can see that the Supreme Court of this state has use ited very dramatically in order to find for a party seeking a set of Public Records. And i will hope that if you do anything like this again, that there will be a serious legal approach to it because that is what it really requires. Thank you. Dont give money to the friends of the library or accept money from the friends of the library. Truthfully it does not matter whether you have handling violations or enforcement vi...
