of these provisions would tend to bring down the spending on any one election but the appropriation requirement does not change. >> i think a lot of the changes are great and long overdue. we pushed for the supreme court thing last year. the total spending cap we are raising seems a very high. that is the thing that still bothers me, the total spending amount we are talking about here. everything else is great. thank you for your hard work. i think it is overdue. if you want to pass that out today, it -- if you really want a recommendation -- and not saying i don't get there, but today i would probably vote against it.

supervisor campos: i do think that it is helpful to hear from the department of elections in terms of what the applications are for them. i think there were some good points raised and for our own benefit and for the benefit of the public hearing directly from them in terms of moving up deadlines, that will be useful. in terms of the effective date, item number two, that would have a different effective date. i think we can have that conversation with respect to item number one and hopefully we can find a place that eight of us can live with. to the extent there are those

concerns i think we should continue having that discussion that and i am glad the city attorney responded to the issue. i think that was a good question. my hope is that both items move forward without a recommendation so that they go forward to the board and i think the fact we are where we are shows a great deal of progress and i want to thank the ethics commission for their work in getting us here. i know that is largely because of the work they have done. so thank you to the members of the commission and i think between now and that time this gets to the full board, we will have more information, but i

would move that we move the two items forward without a recommendation. supervisor kim: we have a motion to move for both items. i just want to say thank you to our community advocates and to our ethics commissioners, for spending many, many months on this. i think the process was really good and we are able to come up with a comprehensive program that addresses voter concerns around our public financing program and i think that strengthens the support for the program that we have and i know -- i am going to withdraw the motion -- we are withdrawing the motion to move forward. we do have an amendment that will be read into the record.

>> thank you. on the subject of other election deadlines, given the representatives of the department of elections is not here, the nomination deadline is only one of the relevant deadlines. there will be a need for further legislation to modify the other deadlines as well if this does become law. on the very minor amendment i would like to offer, on item number one page two, line 5, there is an extra if. it currently reads if, it should read -- is a very small typo but it would be best to address it. supervisor kim: i appreciate that you notice that.

we have a motion to move for both items with our recommendation. we will set up a meeting with the department of election prior to tuesday to get a sense of what that lines may have to be moved. i hope we can get input from your office. >> we are sending this to the committee? my -- i would move this forward and do so as a committee report. supervisor kim: and we do that without opposition. thank you to all members of the public to came out to speak on this. we appreciate your time and value your input and advocacy. at this time, we are recessing into closed session to hear for items. prior to that, we will open up to public comment if anyone would like to speak on these items.

seeing none, public comments is closed. >> thank you. we are reconvening the rules committee after we have gone into closed session on items 3, 4, 5, and 6. >> we met in closed session to discuss pending litigation involving the city. the committee will move three and four forward. >> we have the motion to do so. >> [inaudible] >> we have a motion not to disclose the discussion in the closed session.

>> thank you. do we need to entertain the separately? we have those three motions before us and we can do that without any opposition. the meeting is adjourned.

>> supervisor wiener? supervisor wiener: i have a few items that they related to food trucks. i have been trying to work with various stakeholders to come up with rules that balance the desire to have a vibrant food truck seen in sentences go with other needs as a city. one of the goals is to preserve food diversity in food choice in san francisco. food crops are part of that equation. -- food trucks are part of that equation. additional choices for consumers for food, with a route to entrepreneurship for people wanting to start small businesses without the capital to go another route. we have a lot of immigrants that have food trucks in san francisco. they provide in terms of location' in food preferences.

they also activates streets and public spaces. we should not be eliminating food trucks. it is about balance. balancing the needs of food trucks, brick and mortar restaurants schools, and consumers. i have been working with a number of different stakeholders on this issue and we are continuing to work. however, and mentioned these items today because of the recent developments in sacramento. i am introducing a resolution to put this on record opposing assembly bill 1678. 1678 is a piece of state legislation that would impose a requirement that no food trucks be permitted to be within 1,500 feet, three city blocks, of any high-school, middle school elementary school, public or private. while this is a well-intentioned

bill, it would have a huge impact on san francisco. we have a map, if we can turn that around, showing -- turn that around to face the board -- showing san francisco in purple. but the part where food trucks would be banned if the bill were to go into effect. part of market and south of downtown would not be covered, which is presumably where they would all go. i imagine that the merchants would not be happy about that. this legislation takes away completely local control. we no longer get to decide what the rules should be in san francisco. it would be dictated by the

state. a one size fits all measure that would apply equally in rural locations, suburban, and it brought urban locations -- and urban locations. my resolution would at a minimum, be amended to allow localities to opt out. i am also introducing legislation relating to san francisco's own approach to the proximity of food trucks to schools. currently in san francisco we have an ordinance that prohibits food trucks from being within 1,500 feet of public middle schools or high schools. while not as extensive as the proposed state legislation it still causes problems. there are some neighborhoods like the mission where food trucks are dramatically restricted because that is whe
