supervisor safai? >> supervisor safai: thank you, mr. president. i would just like to say, it sounded like from the city attorney, that current being the operative word is what gets us into disbarment. we can get into further discussion in closed session. actually, this was on my radar, as well. i don't feel comfortable, given the circumstances. it seems as though the fines that were being repaid are simply just the contracts that were awarded illegally, and they're just being reimbursed back to the city, so it seems as though at the end of the day, the taxpayers -- it's a zero sum. they're just getting the money that was awarded illegally. it doesn't seem there were additional fines or penalties paid, and then, the further disbarment. i want to know, is that the individual, is that the individual's l.l.c.s and companies because an l.l.c. will outlive an individual. i think those are appropriate conversations to have in closed session, and i am absolutely in favor of continuing this item and have a closed session so we can more justly resolve this
