adjourned at.

>> dpjdz to the regular meeting of san francisco ethics commission we'll begin by taking the roll call sxhaerp commissioner hayon all members obey present first is public comment on the appearing or not appearing on the agenda with the simplification. >> i came to talk about a need for responding to complaint both filed with you as well as those referred to the suspect ordinance task force because i'm involved in would both aspects of complainant an incident in december of 2013 when i complained about nearly a year ago i've never heard a response

nothing not to say we're looking at it it self-come within our jurisdiction silence that's a problem because what i was on the commission about mike dparz we talked about whether complaints what about stale so the fact i've not heard makes me wonder maybe i h had a valid point but want to talk about the complaints referred to the shoerns task force i've had complaint where i got a unanimous or overwhelming vote sometimes i'd get a response you don't think this would hundred thousand dollar hold up in court i spent time on the task force envelope was there a draft of

minutes or instruction to the shoerns on those saying there has to be a court lawsuit case present to ethics that's not been communicated to the task force or communicated to complainants when we make a complaint i have several overwhelming unanimous decisions get figuratively gotten away what is your criteria and not just as board statement it didn't meet evidence for a court kinds why not made known to the larger public nor the task force that's the timelyness of preponderance response to compliment those foiled directly

to you and sunset in another matter i saw minutes from 2008 people talked about the need have a priority may not but dismissing complaint will have overwhelming support seems like you're not paying attention to the task force maybe they need education but you can't say no and walk away. >> can i get the overhead there you go members of the administration ryan heart from open government i'd like to read this quote from kennedy in the citizens unit case the government may comment a constitutional wrong that

identities preferred speakers by taking the right to speak if some and give it to others the government denies the person the right to establish work and respect for the speakers voice the government may not deparagraph the public to determine for itself what speech and speakers are worthy ever consideration the first amendment protects speaker and speech and the jed idea from each i'd like to agree with our timeliness and here's why i agree i have 19 orders of determination every one has failed to be enforced by you the last one was the city larger than and held a hearing to announce it the day i left the city to go out of the state i was not given notice by e-mail or postal mail a hearing was

held when it gets to point you can't dismiss them like in the past are go do an enron i think that some real questions need to be answered when you look at 19 times are you going to say their all faulty this is a pattern of behavior of city government because i speak about things they don't want spoken of or access to records they decide they're not going to follow the law if you look at those cases each is a first amendment case in the official record and the right to access public records i need to effectively experience by first amendment you're going to tell me 19 cases none was

worth our consideration in fairness i've come to you before and is a the good government guy says you have to give the appearance of fairness you can't look at those 19 cases many have not had a hearing and saying in any way, shape, or form you're in anyway being fair to me, i'm not paranoid under of other members that try to get public records i have the perseverance to take it to the whole crap deal to get those orders when are you going do get off our backside and enforce the law this sunset says this body is responsible for endorsing the law. >> i guess i would be one of the people that are having an

enormous amount of problems unfortunately, i'm an all over the i have a simple permit it's a mess they have a communication officer who didn't communicate it she decided to give documents they're completely irrelevant this has been spending the last 5 years the majority of my time is getting simple documents simple questions asked regarding permit reluctance a little bit information here and there i can't get it i'm not going to take you through what it is like to work in a situation like that but in 2013 they held a hearing to revoke my permit without importing and exporting me and denied me my due process rights i was in the hospital when the

hearing took place i was slander they did not know to run public meetings at all mr. hearts was there defended that he that was on by doing a public record search by my name they filed a case at the same time i had to wait for that to close out 3 medias later and filed on appeal and one and since that time i'm afraid that work in the streets it's not a fear of retaliation only lies in venting incidents that haven't happened and trying to get bits and pieces of information point me to the code point me to the ordinance or the section that would be regarding bottle caps as stupid as it may sound at the

can't get it today and everyday i go through that i am am afraid to go to their office last month you ring a buzzer to get to the door i rang the buzzer to get a money order it takes a few minutes instead, they denied me assess a woman manager went to the guards desk and claimed to call 9-1-1 a restraining order against me i've endured this for 10 years. >> mr. chair what sort of permit are you talking about. >> it's called a street ordinance permit i have it many my bag my health is at stake it

is urban bearable for me through the street artist program. >> thank you. >> the next item is constitution and possible action regarding a letter sent to supervisor farrell on december 9, 2014 mr. st. kci. >> chair i need to recuse myself from this matter thank you. >> so the commission demonstrated at the last meeting to request that supervisor farrell respond to the forfeiture letter the staff issued in december to determine what if any further actions to take on had matter i believe that someone representing mr.

farrell is here. >> is there a representative of many farrell here? >> thank you, commissioners for the opportunity to discuss this matter i'm sure you're aware of we submitted a detailed letter outlining the reasons why we believe strongly that forfeiture is not warranted in that matter and it is on the city's behave of the forfeiture request most noblely supervisor farrell has done absolutely nothing wrong the fcc xhublthd a two year discussion where everyone involved with this looked at hundreds of thousands of e-mails and they completely exaggerated

supervisor farrell in demi had not teen any action that warranted any type of fine yet we are here basically 5 years later two elections later with a letter demanding he pay $191,000 perp there's absolutely no factual or local basis for such an equitable request again most notably because he didn't violate the law at all also on a procedural ground the establishment bars the commission if the commission wants to ask the committee to forfeit money back to the city the law says it do very clearly your policy says to do that

within four years that's by october 2014 now they've been talk oh, there's fraudulent concealment and talked about left lane well nights the stipulation is - the commission was put on notice or received a complaint in 2010 alleged from the realizing attorney ladies and gentlemen, there might be corporation between supervisor farrell and the committee regardless the staff actually sat in on the interviews with the b are f bbc when we interviewed the row committee they did the actions the staff of the ethics commission clearly

they can have decides whether to act within it's four years stauchlts if in those interviews was absolutely no reason why the commission couldn't have requested forfeiture before october of 2014 but it self-and because of that and because those rules are clear it can't now you know two elect cycles later ask for for it is your the other thing about forfeiture we role don't think that forfeiture when is kind of a term of art is appropriate in this case as mr. sincroy said forfeiture is authorized by the law in a limit number of circumstances it is when a committee files a report and from
