This comes despite a city task force deciding on Wednesday to keep in place its ethics referral against the departing mayor.
“If this task force submits a referral to the Ethics Commission regarding Mayor Breed’s alleged misconduct … and Mayor Breed is no longer serving the city in her official capacity as an elected official, then the Ethics Commission will return the referral back to the task force for lack of jurisdiction,” said Valerie Lopez, a deputy city attorney speaking to the Sunshine task force at Wednesday’s hearing.
“If we rescind it,” added Chris Hyland, another member, “it seems like it might disappear and it doesn’t record in history the track record of this particular mayor. I think that would be a disservice.” Breed’s practice came to light after Hazel Williams, an activist who frequently files public records requests, began asking for the latest official text messages from Breed, Chiu, and other city officials over the summer. Both officials use their personal phones to conduct city business.
