There remains a lack of uniformity in how those officials interpret the law, which may be as relevant today as ever thanks to the widespread distrust San Franciscans have of city government.
That’s why, in 1999, voters approved a Sunshine Ordinance that forces top city officials to maintain a daily public calendar that documents who they’re meeting with and what they’re talking about.
As of Wednesday, more than a full week after the request was made, eight of the 11 supervisors had turned over a calendar in one form or another. Supervisors Gordon Mar, Dean Preston and Catherine Stefani had not. Supervisor Connie Chan’s calendar showed a meeting with Recology executives Jamario Jackson and Dan Shea, as well as lobbyist David Noyola. Its purpose was unstated.
Longtime — and often controversial — local activist Michael Petrelis has filed a complaint against Supervisors Shamann Walton and Rafael Mandelman with The City’s Sunshine Ordinance Task Force for failing to turn over a calendar that complied with city law.Walton’s staff turned over his September calendar upon The Examiner’s request. It contained numerous personal tasks, such as time blocked off to read the newspaper or get a haircut, but did not detail all of his meetings.
