The Rules Committee voted unanimously on Oct. 2 to recommend Maxine Anderson for seat 5 of the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force, advancing her appointment to the full Board.
Anderson described long-standing work with voter-education and transparency organizations and said her experience prompted her interest in the Sunshine Task Force. Chair Supervisor Matt Dorsey and others discussed potential process improvements for the Sunshine Ordinance, such as better IT support for public-records requests and a searchable database of Sunshine decisions; Anderson and committee members agreed funding and implementation details would need further work.
Telephone callers representing the League of Women Voters and other transparency advocates spoke in support, noting Anderson’s familiarity with the Sunshine Ordinance and Brown Act. Chair Dorsey moved to recommend Anderson to the full Board and the committee recorded unanimous aye votes (Walton: Aye; Safaí: Aye; Dorsey: Aye).
Her appointment will move to the Board for formal confirmation at the next scheduled Board meeting.
