francisco ethics commission [ gavel ] good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the regular meeting of the san francisco ethics commission for september 26, 2016. before i turn to the agenda, i want to take the pleasure of introducing our newest commissioner, a man who i think is known to many of us in san francisco who has lived here for a long time. the man who has devoted his life to public service. we are honored that he s willing to seven on the ethics commission. quentin kopp. thank you very much. it s a pleasure to be with you and vice commissioner keane. i have known judge kopp for more than 45 years. as a supervisor in the city and county of san francisco. and a judge and things like the state bar. judge kopp and i were involved at the state bar. he was indeed a tremendous main stay in terms of protecting the integrity of the political system in san francisco and we are really blessed by having him as an asset as a membership. quentin, i couldn t
