9:04 am
to see move forward but item one is something additional to see go away as quickly as possible. >> i fully support that timeline i'd like to see that. >> public comment on that proposed timeline? all right. hearing none >> i figure calendar is a great idea. >> we look forward to march 23rd meeting. >> let's turn to i think its number 7 decision and possible action regarding an amendment to the changes of the san francisco caption finance ordinance that were approved by the commission
9:05 am
at the january 2015 meeting the amendment proposed the same disclosure on smaller written communications on both independence and elections and communications comments mr., sir. >> thank you, commissioners as we said last month the commission approved a passage for c from to standard device the reporting for third party's making expenditures on elections also included were changing to standard dices changes that must be on the mailers that are sent out those apply both the ballet measure committee and the candidates to the so-called election communications where you're not advocating for or
9:06 am
against a candidate but mentioning him or her we did a great job of standardizing those rules there was one omission that's for small sort prinltd steering wheels like flyers and basically, we forgot to put the language in or i forgot to put in the language the subject to mailings and they're the same specifically with respect to the smaller those smaller items like door hangers and posters this is a clean and we don't think this

9:10 am
lee would we have a duty of reasonable care to serve and protect his farrell's interests this establishes lee so far as i understand as farrell's fiduciary i not only violated the caption finance laws but breached emphasis fiduciary duties to farrell to hold farrell responsible for the action of lee is unjustify after one and a half years i'm not sure of investigation did not find farrell for custodial believable but in my opinion to preserve the litigation against farrell in a 5 year old action
9:11 am
would be a waste of city resources and worse co-whatever the outcome of the litigation i understand you're an attorney and other attorneys but we all know if you go through litigation whatever the outcome it can effect our repgs reputation that's the more and more most important fact if the city is going to consider whether or not to through this process and consider taking this to litigation it can do greatest harm to someone that was x-rated and this procedure should stop it up for your time. >> any other public comment particularly on who the commission should go into closed session? commissioner want to express or
