ADDENDUM
            The following information are provided by speaker(s), pursuant to Administrative Code, Section
            67.16. The content is neither generated by, nor subject to approval or verification of accuracy by,
            the Clerk of the Board or the Board of Supervisors. Ray Hartz submitted the following additional
            information during Public Comment as follows: On the screen is a referral to this BOS regarding
            the "Public Library's Failure to Respond to Requests to Identify Expenditure Documents." City
            Librarian Luis Herrera is specifically identified as the person who failed to comply. Mr. Herrera has
            used his position to withhold public records and to direct other City employees to do the same. He
            has violated not only the Sunshine Ordinance but also CPRA and has directed other City
            employees to act in violation of both laws. At no time did Mr. Herrera even attempt to justify his
            actions or directions. For 20 months he has simply refused to produce documents he knew he had
            a legal obligation to produce. The critical paragraph of this referral reads: "The Task Force
            recommends that the Board of Supervisors investigate the Libraries documentation of its
            expenditure of Friends' funds." This is the driving force behind all these violations of law.
