SUMMARY OF ACTIONS TAKEN AT JANUARY 10, 2005 MEETING

 

At its regular meeting on

January 10, 2005

 , the San Francisco Ethics Commission took the following action:

  • Adopted by a vote of 5-0 a Permit Processing Code of Conduct, as required under San Francisco Campaign and Governmental Conduct Code section 3.400(c).  The Code provides ethical guidelines for officers and employees of the Department of Building Inspection, the Planning Department and the Department of Public Works, and members of the public who use their services. 
  • Received information about the canvass of delinquent major donor filers that was conducted by staff.  The Commission had received several letters expressing concern about the notices.  Staff will provide a follow-up report at the March meeting.
  • Addressed the “neutrality” requirement in the Commission’s draft Statement of Incompatible Activities.  The Commission will continue to discuss this at future meetings. 
  • Delineated the process for consideration of advice letters:  staff will issue informal advice letters and provide copies to the Commission.  Staff will provide drafts of formal advice letters to the Commission before they are issued so that if two or more members wish to calendar a formal advice letter for discussion, they may do so. 

The next Ethics Commission meeting will be held on

Monday, February 14, 2005

 , at 

5:30 p.m.
