WHEREAS, The Immigrant Rights Commission desires to hold an immigrant rights summit; and

WHEREAS, Organizing and holding an immigrant rights summit would require substantial financial resources; and,

WHEREAS, The Commission wishes to minimize any financial impacts that the immigrant rights summit might have to the City's budget by seeking outside gifts and funding to finance the immigrant rights summit; and,

WHEREAS, In accordance with Sections 10.170 to 10.170.6 of the San Francisco Administrative Code, the Commission must obtain approval from the Board of Supervisors before it can accept and expend any gifts and funding it may receive; and,

WHEREAS, Section 18944.2 of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations requires a public agency to take certain actions before accepting gifts and funding from outside sources; and,

WHEREAS, The San Francisco Sunshine Ordinance requires the disclosure of the amount and sources of such funding as a public record when the amount of money, or good or services provided by outside sources worth more than one hundred dollars ($100) in aggregate; now, therefore, be it
