SEC. 1.156. REPORT TO THE MAYOR AND BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
§ 1.156
After each election for Mayor or Supervisors, the Ethics Commission must report to the Mayor and Board of Supervisors on public campaign funding used, including the number of participating and nonparticipating candidates, qualified campaign spending, and independent expenditures.
After every election where San Francisco elects a Mayor or Supervisors, the Ethics Commission has to send a report to City leaders. The report explains how much public money was spent on campaigns that election, how many candidates used the public funding, how many didn't, how much candidates spent overall on qualified campaign expenses, and how much money went to independent spending groups.
- Could be simpler:The phrase 'such other information as the Ethics Commission deems useful' is vague and could be clarified to specify what discretionary information the Commission typically includes or may include.
