found my response to be rude and for that i apologize ms. johnson. you need a motion on the session? that >> is there a motion to not disclose the closed session dlibsz related to agenda item number 6? >> second. >> all in favor, say i. >> oh. commissioners director formal san francisco public government i don't understand the 4 cases 3 had to do with campaign violations and you couldn't write on the agenda those are campaign violations and the public will have some ideas what you were doing but that's too much to ask i don't know what the first case was but it was

something you could have given a vague stipulation without compromising monlz anyone's rights frankly the harder you fight the more obstinate you get the reason you come to those meetings and you see the few members of the public don't come because you make it obese by trups someone in the mid of their speak and have to come back and their frame of thought ms. johnson felt anger and she couldn't come back and express herself so your apologize is a day late and it's not to the person it should have been given

>> the next item. >> oh, we have to move and didn't we all in favor, say i. opposed? hearing none, the motion passes the next item on the agenda is the discussion and possible action sorry is yes discussion and possible action on the minutes. public comment? >> dan ray heart n for the san francisco open government those minutes are the reason i fought for the one hundred and 50 words summers in the minutes they pair down to nothing in parking lot from the denims from the public utilities public those are

meaning less i get one sentence out of it you're not listening, in fact, those are a de facto of public sensorship if anyone buildings you'll off base i ask people to speak for 3 minutes and read f the sum you'll not recognize it. see for user whether there's had anything representative in a meaningful fashion we're talking about constitutional political free speech. the protection of that free speech extends to its recommendation in the public record because it's been paid for that i public funds. this is particularly true when did free speech equalities for a

petition of gruvenz ail the petitions have the basis in a petition for readdressing things we felt upper handing things unlawfully and dpw denigrated the speakers the one thing you'll not take an action to change our kwauz you're just determined the public is not going to be involved in the public hearing and if the public has something to say you're not going to make an attempt to put it into the public record because you don't like what they say. you can deny it before and after but with you don't like what we have to say and as a result, you pay him to put in a couple of short sentences and sensor what

we're putting in there not because we're not getting to say it because government censorship. that's what the library commission has done for years and that's why i started to fight for the one hundred and 50 word summers because those things need to be on the record i'm sic and tired of people raising issues and saying oh, nobody said anything i can sit and look down at our desks shows the kind of district you people have >> comments on the minutes. is there a motion to approve the

minutes from the may meeting marry second >> second. >> all in favor, say i. opposed? hearing none, the motion passes. the next item on the agenda is the discussion of the executive director report >> just a couple of things i want to highlight. i did ask for and we will receive help from the controller's office on some of the audits that are pending. there there they're going to help us with a dozen audits that means by the end of this calendar year we'll be caught that's a first for us in a long time. so i think that's very good news we have a filing period of january 1st through june 30th. i would point out that the

training that the f pc did for us we're very grateful that they took the time to come down here and do an all day tracing training with our staff we found it useful. and you can see the director wants to turn this into a picture he felt it would be funny to see this swargs. we're going to be a little bit short on our revenue because of the revenue stream our revenue target is going to be 75 thousand dollars those are my highlights >> questions for the executive director relating to the executive director report? public comment? >> commissioners ray heart

director of san francisco open government this is a generic one size fits all fits all nothing more or less each month i intend to go select one item to discuss today, it's item 7. on statements of economic interests. for years city larger than lewis accepted thousands of dollars even if responsibilityable gifts from friends he go forward his fiduciary job expend by the fund from 2000 to 2013 if the public sees the screen the commissioners are busy doing busy work he did so well enforcing the oversight for the millions of dollars 0 raised by group and year after yes, he

pursue go right ahead himself in a quick pro-kwo arrangement he utilized about accepting the gifts and look at it this other way where the if i understand were going he abused his job to withhold public records that uncovers the it's in vision of the brown act and the public records act and the sunshine ordinance. member of the public end up having to do your job it's well, to sit around and use the right text size on a letter and crap as far as most of the san franciscans they don't care but you have a librarian taking a payoff from a group and letting

them raise $60,000 and come before the public and represent he knows where this money went and the bottom line is after two solid years of public document requests it took a year to get a what we needed to get to fine him and he got a good deal 5 thousand dollars a year worth ever hotel trips and he paid a $200 fine sign me up for that if i get caught i'll pay $200 and we f we asked you to look at it is you wouldn't do it we have to go to sacramento we do your job because you're too intent on co-sponsoring other people. that's exactly what happened

when mr. sincroy did it while i was out of the state cover their butts. you can look as disgusted as you want to silence is gotten >> items for future meetings pr any items that the commissioners want to propose for the future agenda. >> without necessarily conceding the merits of some of the argument made tonight i wonder and i'll ask the staff to look at this why we don't when we have these hearings on probable cause or a strimgs don't identify what the alleged violations are of what the statutory provisions of the code whatever it maybe so that the public would have some awareness

ever what the subject matter is of the closed hearings. >> i agree if there's some way to put something general so people have some idea i think that makes sense that's something we should be doing. along those lines at some point i'd like to take up the comments made by those two individuals appeared to have given been given faulty information at least that's what their allegations is so the question is you know how do we make sure that people who want to run for office are getting the proper information and is it a good

idea i thought his idea of a check list it sounded reasonable i don't know how easy or not easy it is to do something like that or if it's respect to what we do >> we talked about looking at the candidates. >> but also do you ever have concerns if people come in personally that all staff knows what to tell him in terms of filing dates and all the forms they all know what they need to tell the candidates. >> yes. >> so those two individuals there's misunderstanding. >> i don't know but the process is overwhelming for the first time candidates. >> i understand that. there are a number of filing requirements and at any given

conversation, you know, small business could think they have everything and i'll tell you that from the form that they referenced is due very early so it's unfortunate it's so early in the process >> because their excellent things to the staff to consider we should take up that for design. >> public comment? >> and i don't know how much more i can be clear the case from the sunshine oral systematically i'm specifically 62 to have a rehearing. you had a hearing made no effort to determine where i was not here i was a party of interest. and you can shake our head and

do all this crap the bottom line if you went into a hearing and they held the hearing without letting you know and simply i'm not talking about sending out the notice i was out of the state and didn't receive notice until i got back are you honestly going to sit there and look at it me and say i wouldn't have a problem with that. the reason i'm saying this during the hearing mr. herrera lied through emphasis teeth said it would take $40,000 for me to be allowed to put a slide on the librarian auditorium he can do the same thing they send send him a power point presentation and it didn't cost him a penny and, in fact, the sunshine task force especially asked him

during the hearing if it's the case. they don't like what i have to say ii think you understand that feeling having they don't want me to use the overlayed projector like the groups they like by the way, i will put up things that are easily disessential i spent 4 years teacher for the state of hawaii i can make a complete presentation and with graphics i'm killer. that's viewpoint discretion it's a violation of my fichlts and it

was based on on mr. herrera's lies to the library commission which they bought with this argument they had to spent $40,000 for the slides up on the screen. now i don't know about you but i'm ticked off the way it was handled i was denied due process. so frankly it was and i think the issue come down but i received notice i was 0 out of the state and can prove it. the second thing is whether i have the integrity to have a hearing and at least ask that the participant or involved parties be part of the hearing. >> is there a motion to adjourn the meeting so moved. second >> second. >> in favor.

>> i. the meeting is adjourned.

>> so what brought you out here for the bike ride today? >> i grew up in san francisco but i have been living in new york. i wanted to see what san

francisco is doing with infrastructure. >> cities are where people are living these days. the bay area is doing a lot with construction and the way to change the world starts here. >> we are about to take a bike ride. we have 30 cyclist. i'm really excited to hit the road and see what the city has in store.

>> i definitely recommend it to people. it's a fun afternoon and you learn so many things. >> this is so much fun. i go to parts of the city that i don't come to. this will make the city a more susta . >> okay, let's get started. welcome to our special rules committee meeting for monday, june 23rd, 2014. i
