SEC. 18.111. ASIAN ART MUSEUM STATUS.
§ 18.111
While the Asian Art Museum occupies a wing of the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum, the Commission manages the collections in that wing under a 1969 management agreement between the Committee of Asian Art and Culture and the de Young Museum's Board of Trustees.
As long as the Asian Art Museum is housed in part of the de Young Museum building, the Commission is in charge of taking care of and running the art collections that are in that wing. This arrangement is based on an agreement made in 1969 between the Committee of Asian Art and Culture and the de Young Museum's Board of Trustees. A copy of that agreement is kept with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.
- Could be simpler:The section's heavy reliance on an external 1969 agreement (not quoted in the Code itself) creates ambiguity about what 'control and manage' actually means in practice; quoting key terms or summarizing the agreement's core duties would improve clarity.
