Commission Advances Standalone Ordinance Replacing Hard-Coded sfethics.org in Campaign Disclaimers

The commission approved an ordinance letting the commission-designated website address replace sfethics.org in campaign disclaimers ahead of a state-mandated move to a .ca.gov domain.

Why it matters: It avoids another ordinance for the website change and splits off a time-sensitive fix while the larger streamlining legislation stays stalled at the Board of Supervisors.
