while working for supervisor farrell. >> supervisor farrell certainly takes full responsible for the action of his committee. >> no, he has never said or done anything he fully coordinated with the ftc c and the commission in this matter he was interviewed empty the f bbc an two occasions follow-up phone calls they've determined that given the facts all the information they gathered that it was not - he had done nothing wrong the consultant did, yes the committee they sent out the 3 overwhelms they've talked about in their stipulation and the packet ever materials there is - supervisor farrell is not acquit the opposite he's not very happy to find out what it is it 3 years laterthree or four e-mails and he took responsibility. >> i'm sure he's not happy no one is saying in this factual information that supervisor farrell is an evil man what's being said that the arrangement it was set up clearly violated the section of the san francisco campaign and government code this is that supervisor farrells campaign staff consultant worked with this other committee and channeled illegal campai

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 po

channeling this illegal campaign money to supervisor farrell well, we may have not known even though he didn't he is still responsible under the law if we don't have that we'll have this evil man washington his hands in order for this section to have validity. >> any other questions for mr. sutton. >> thank you, mr. chair do you happen to know how much was spent overhead on the campaign the mark farrell campaign. >> i apologize. i don't it might be 2, 3, 4 some of the documents i don't know if you know. >> and i ask because to me. >> several hundred thousands of dollars. >> it brings some of the when you're spending half a million dollars half a million dollars is a lot when you're running for president you spend billion dollars it is a small campaign with hundreds of dollars of dollars on local television so see that amount of activities and that level of an expenditure within a campaign that probably is somewhere in the mid hundreds of thousand dollars it is for me a little bit hard to believe that r a reasonable person wouldn't know about this activity because that amount of money

farrell is indicated that he sees the action of f pc having completely x reporting him mr. farrell should be ashamed ever making those statements owning up to what has happened he's not done that and taken this as a victory this is one the most e entrenches campaign violations the only thing remaining the supreme court has left us in coping campaign tricks is honest that is the campaign contribution limits dribbling to a candidate are in place they were violated the idea - so on the yes of statute of limitations it hadn't run fellow commissioners of it had run let's let a judge a court decide that in regards to the usual course of litigation i don't think it has i'll volunteer to be the one that arrests this in front of the destructing and the board of appeals i'll agree that in regards to the idea of a waiver then then moving on to the next question this thing can be waved by us a commission why should we wave one of the most egregious campaign violations that has come before this commission and it's history why wave it because people have come to us and say farrell is an

effect supervisor farrell said that was my staff mr. farrell has the attitude that he's not accountable for hi staff i wonder if he served in the u.s. military your answering or answerable so for it and i'll take the commissioners question on one hand and $91,000 was spent on material that bend his campaign getting yet he was total unbe aware of it never wonder who this generous person was spent all the tens of the thousands of dollars to support his campaign either directly or indirectly he didn't ask anybody on the staff gee who are those nice people i find that ludicrous but again we hear the explanation that was a person and i'll go back to commissioner keane's point you hire someone you're responsible inform war they do or not your answerable and he took the measures to see this person didn't gadget in illegal activity and saying i didn't know he was doing it to tell us the whole responsibility thing on its head if you hire someone and they do something illegal on our on behalf accountable and something that is familiar with superv

that well, there was this other campaign committee that was under the coordination of supervisor farrell's campaign share and they were doing a number of things including giving him direct contributions but they were those other things they were just doing hit pieces on the opponent therefore that's not a campaign contribution the fact that group was doing hit pieces on the opponent that full $200000 for that committee controlled by supervisor farrell's people during the time of the campaign was gave me in all the secret activities that pisses on the opponent and expenditures on his behalf it is 2 hundred thoughts u thousands of illegal money for his campaign this is a campaign contribution. >> any motion by anyone? >> i don't have is a motion. >> okay. >> mr. chairman i want to make a comment before a motion or any public comment i do know i want to remind administrative review at commissioners of the discuss it seems there protect no way to have it would be an all-or-none proposition by which internally within the staff as a practice we were going to do somewhat more closely monitored an

. >> it is a start but it is an incompletely supervisor farrell said wanting to create without a doubt without a doubt there's a doubt in his mind we have an enforcement issue without someplace. >> commissioner antonini and ultimate it is up to the host to report every year and they we'll have to reporter honestly like the tax the tax malia cohen to report the number of nights to a limit to again we have to find a way to do it ever airbnb for instance, reports 90 days and go to someone else and grabs another from craigslist and someone else we'll not know ultimately the host is going to be the one that has to say i'm against we're supposed to vote not way you have a phrased. >> does not require. >> does not so we're voting yes on do not and commissioner wu. >> i agree with commissioner richards thoughts for enforceability is only don't need this type of information. >> commissioner hillis. >> can you remind me what the host have to report so unanimously they need to send a report to the planning department kind of signed under oath the number of days. >> yes. >> again, i that one hundr

ordinance. >> we can talk about the farrell's provision we weren't away that was in the ordinance. >> so the longer period seems nor reasonable to me. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i tend to agree i'm going to think the violation occurs and then there's a 90 day period of time there might be private right of action but after that time exteriors there are can't be private right of action reverent are you farrell wanted one hundred and 5 instead of 90 making it a longer period of time. >> actually, the difference continue sxomz is 60 days and the interested party gives a 60 days past the department basically hadn't made any form determination so this is a or not a violation within 60 days of complaint if this happens this in supervisor campos legislation the interested party has to give the doves thirty days notice of their intent to foil a lawsuit their private right of action is cut off and they have to go to the regular private right of action they have to go dot whole administration process with the city and then file a lawsuit under ferals the timeline is long-range his it on

can check themselves there is going to discourage enforcement and complaints, and, secondly, the farrell legislation removes the requirement that the city can look at if you live there permanently that's i mean that is opening up a can of worm relocate those amendments in the farrell legislation anyway our next speaker is sarah short in the tenant group thank you very much. >> hi, i'm sarah short with the housing rights the san francisco good afternoon a coalition of tenants groups released a report showing it evictions in san francisco are higher than a decade we see the landlords getting their rent control tenant out and basically trump up charges hoping the tenant will be scared out and for the small lease violations like hanging laundry outside believe it or not at this point more and more long term renters are losing their homes and we're losing unit 5 thousand unit are being taken off the market inform short-term rentals 5 thousand units for those who are being evicted could now live 5 thousand unit are newcomers would live rather than displacing other we have to consider why there

seconded by supervisor farrell. supervisor christensen. >> thank you madam president. so it seems to me we've gone into a deeper discussion so we have an immediate question which is the validity of existing budget and the services proposed so those are questions. sounds to me we're opening a broader question and what kind of services philosophically do we want as a board and a city which is a bigger question so we all share concern about immediate security needs so i guess my question is for the city attorney perhaps can we by motion at this board today approve an extension of the existing contract for 90 days and direct the mta to report back to us on these issues? is it possible to have our cake and eat it too? >> supervisor christensen through the president i don't believe you could make that motion today. i don't think that is before you. as far as i know the mta is not in the position to make the proposal with cypress or any other provider. >> madam president so we have approved an extension of the existing contract in the past in order for the negotiations to con
