Council Member Sandy Nurse inquires about a specific incident at ACS (Administration for Children's Services) involving a potential violation of sanctuary laws. The MOIA representatives are unable to provide specific details about the incident or its resolution.
- Question about whether the ACS incident was due to an individual's personal position or lack of information about protocols
- MOIA representatives unable to provide specific details due to ongoing or open HR matters
- Emphasis on existing protocols for addressing accidental or purposeful violations of directives and local laws

For the ACS example, was this was was the determination that there was an individual who was, interested in in doing this because of their personal position or there was a determination that there was a lack of, information about protocol?
Rebecca Engel

Yeah.
1:40:28
I'm afraid I'm I I don't know.
1:40:30
I just don't know.
1:40:30
Okay.
Manuel Castro
1:40:32
Yeah.

And we it's sometimes I mean, it is hard for us to weigh in on any staff, you know, in HR matters, especially if they are ongoing or open.
1:40:43
But, again, this is to emphasize that there are protocols in place for those individuals who may accidentally or purposefully not follow directives in our, local laws.

Is there any tracking mechanism set up or are you thinking about setting up any tracking to keep note of if if anything like this starts to happen, so that you can start to see if you have a serious pattern happening?
