SEC. 67.31. RESPONSIBILITY FOR ADMINISTRATION.
§ 67.31
This section assigns responsibility for administering the Sunshine Ordinance across city government: the Mayor oversees departments under the Mayor's and mayoral-appointee boards' control; elected officers oversee their own departments; and the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors must provide a full-time staff person and necessary resources to support the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force and assist the public in accessing public meetings and information.
The Mayor is in charge of making sure departments under their control follow the Sunshine Ordinance rules. Other elected officials manage the same for their own departments. The Clerk of the Board of Supervisors must hire a full-time staff member to help run the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force and help the public find information about public meetings and government records. The Clerk must also give that staff person the equipment and facilities they need to do their job.
- Could be simpler:The first two sentences are nearly identical and could be consolidated into one statement that the Mayor administers for both the Mayor's departments and mayoral-appointed board and commission departments.
