Rules committee met in closed session on pending litigation and voted not to disclose discussion
Summary
Deputy City Attorney Cheryl Adams requested closed-session consultation on pending claims and litigation; the committee met in closed session, moved item 4 forward to the full Board, and the chair moved a motion "to not disclose" the closed-session discussion.
Deputy City Attorney Cheryl Adams asked the Rules Committee to meet in closed session to discuss pending claims and litigation involving the city, citing Government Code section 54956.9(a) and San Francisco Administrative Code section 67.1(d) as the legal basis because public discussion would likely prejudice the city's position.
After the closed-session consultation, Ms. Adams reported the committee wished to move item 4 forward to the full Board with a recommendation. Chair Ross Mercurimi then stated, "Motion to not disclose," and the committee moved not to disclose the contents of the closed-session discussion; the transcript records the motion but does not include a roll-call vote tally or further details of the litigation discussed.
The committee's action will be reflected as a committee report to the Board; no further public details were provided in the transcript.
