Summary
After convening in closed session, the committee voted 2–0 (Supervisor Peskin excused) to forward items 4–15—various settlement authorizations—to the full Board with a positive recommendation and approved a motion not to disclose the closed‑session discussion.
The Government Audit and Oversight Committee on April 18 convened in closed session to consider items 4 through 15, which the Clerk described as various ordinances and resolutions authorizing settlement of lawsuits against the City and County of San Francisco.
After returning to open session, Deputy City Attorney John Givner reported that during closed session the committee voted 2–0, with Supervisor Aaron Peskin excused, to forward items 4–15 to the full Board with a positive recommendation. The committee then voted, without objection, not to disclose the closed‑session discussion.
The clerk had told the public that items acted upon at today’s meeting would appear on the Board of Supervisors agenda on April 24, 2018. The committee provided no additional details about the settlements in open session.
