    Everyone should read “Situational Ethics Or Ethics for Hire?” in The SVVoice 9/9/22, it asks: “What are the ethics of routinely leaking confidential documents and closed session information to the San Francisco Chronicle, as Gillmor routinely does?” Gillmor spent $5 million of Jed York’s money to pass Measure J and build Levi’s Stadium." (Shanks) thinks spending by the 49ers is unethical, but was it unethical in 2010 for Lisa?

    Before any Council discussion or action, every Council Member should take the time to read and absorb Ethicist Tom Shanks' statement in the September 8 Mercury News, which includes the following: "From what I’ve witnessed in Santa Clara, I don’t believe the City Council majority has an understanding of ethics or a concern for public trust. It would be disastrous and sad if Santa Clara became the Bell of Northern California." https://bayareane.ws/3TUUzmf
