mr. givner: sure. deputy city attorney jon givner. last year, the state legislature adopted a bill that requires that any time a ballot measure is proposed to the voters that could increase taxes, it has to have certain information in the measure, including how much will be collected each year, what the potential rate of taxation is, how long collection would continue. and so going forward, all tax measures and geobonds must include that information. the legislature is currently considering a bill that would not apply that new rule to geobonds, so it's a little unclear at this point whether the state law will restrict how we define the question for this bond. in the current ordinance before you, there is a proposed question for the geobond. >> supervisor cohen: right. >> mr. givner: because the state law might change, our recommendation today is that you can pass out the ordinance onto the full board, and the ordinance -- and the board could even vote to place the ordinance on the ballot over the next several weeks. but before you do

mr. givner: that's right. supervisor kim, i believe, discussed potentially adding in these pieces as well as some other pieces in the larger ordinance that passed at the board but instead chose to move these pieces separately after the board considered the big piece of legislation. >> supervisor safai: all right. 'cause i mean -- actually, it would be good to -- actually, i don't know that we have the brain power for that right now, but it seems to me we would benefit from a little bit more conversation on these issues that are in front of us today, particularly around the idea of the disclaimer that's been removed. also, you said some of the stuff clarifying supplemental reporting on public financing. these are all things that impact us as supervisors and part of the process, so it might be helpful to have someone here from the ethics commission and then we can have a little bit more of a conversation about this, if that's okay. supervisor yee? >> supervisor yee: i just want clarification. so the ethics commi

mr. givner: sure. deputy city attorney jon givner. you don't have to read the amendments into the record. i think supervisor ronen described essentially what those amendments are at the outset. one big piece of it is there are some changes to the structure throughout, but one big piece is no longer requiring specific departments to submit reports to mohcd in order to prepare the master chess report and no longer prepare that ordinances creating cultural districts will go through specific commissions. now it may be and probably will be that when an ordinance is introduced to create a new cultural district, it will be required to go through certain commissions, depending on its content like the historic preservation commission, but the ordinance doesn't specify that in that kind of fine board detail. in terms of your second question about the process going forward, there is not an

mr. givner. >> mr. givner: good afternoon. jon givner. deputy city attorney.i'm sitting in for my colleague on this item. under the charter, enforcement matters must remain confidential until a finding of probable cause is made and a public accusation. so there are matters in this closed session regarding probable cause -- potential probable cause findings. those must be handled confidentially unless a respondent in a probable cause matter requests that they be made public. and if the commission makes a finding of probable cause, the commission then comes out into open session, publicly announces its finding and its accusation, and then, the remainder of that proceeding, including a potential hearing on the merits, is all in open session. >> commissioner kopp: all right. >> commissioner chiu: so item 13 will be held -- will be in closed session, and item 12, if there's a desire on the part of the commission to discuss the status of complaints and investigations that are ongoing would also be in closed session. so before going into closed session, i'll call for

mr. givner: unli. >> unlike a change in meters parking this is a decision to put parking in that spot where you now have the bike parking. >> supervisor safai: do they define limit? >> they do not. but -- but our -- our advice in our reading of that charter provision, especially in light of what comes before it regarding mta's exclusive authority generally and how this is a specific carveout, our advice is that the board has authority to review time limitations but not to review absolute predictioohibitions at parking and stopping, which is why this ordinance doesn't review, for instance, red zones. >> supervisor safai: okay. through the chair, i'll just -- i'll follow up with you all on that one, but other than that, i think i've pretty much said clearly what our amendments were. and did supervisor peskin, did you speak specifically about the fee waiver? i know we talked about that, so we're good. >> supervisor tang: yeah. supervisor kim? -- >> supervisor safai: oh, by the way, one last thing, i am also in favor of putting the threshold at five. >> supervisor tang: thank you. supervisor ki

mr. givner can speak to it. but as to any conversion of retail to another form of less traditional retail, including but not limited to museum use, including some of the stuff that has been proposed for the 4th and 5th floors of 120 stockton would not be subject to these controls. if you want to address that, but that is our understanding from planning. and then with regard to the larger question of the 18 months. it is my profound desire and intention to have permanent controls and impact fee done within that 18-month period. if we can get that done this calendar year, these interim controls would then sunset when we had the permanent controls and the impact fee and we're working as quickly as we can to achieve that. i'm not interested in having interim controls in the sake of having them. planning has been talking about this now for two years. this is going to be a gentle nudge to finally consummate that to the form of permanent controls. >> supervisor safai: just want to say briefly, i really appreciate the s
