Committee convenes closed session and recommends settlements to Board
Summary
The committee met in closed session on a litigation agenda (items 4–18) and, upon return to open session, the clerk reported unanimous committee recommendation of those items to the Board of Supervisors for consideration on Jan. 28; the committee also moved not to disclose closed-session proceedings.
The Government Audit and Oversight Committee convened a closed session on items 4 through 18, described on the public agenda as ordinances and resolutions authorizing settlements of lawsuits and claims and authorizing offers to compromise in litigation against the City and County of San Francisco.
After the closed session the clerk reported the committee acted unanimously to recommend agenda items 4 through 18 to the Board of Supervisors for consideration on Jan. 28. Chair Marr moved that the committee not disclose the proceedings from the closed session; that motion was moved and recorded on the public transcript as approved, with no roll-call vote appearing in the public record.
The transcript does not include settlement amounts, case names or additional details for the closed-session items; those details typically appear in the closed-session memorandum and the Board packet when the items come before the full Board.
