As word of City Controller Laura Chick’s private house meetings with four top mayoral candidates leaked out last week, Deputy City Attorney Kristina Scott was asked whether Chick sought legal advice before arming Mayor Jim Hahn’s challengers with opposition research accusing him and his administration of flagrant mismanagement. Scott also was asked whether Chick picked up the phone before making public the memo that Chick and her staff gave to the candidates.

At first, Scott wouldn’t say much, citing the attorney-client privilege. “I cannot confirm or deny whether I have advised her on this matter,” she said. But when told that Chick continued to deem the meetings and the memo private, yet had held two press conferences in a very public City Hall to address the matter, Scott paused and said, “I was not aware of that.”

Governmental-reform experts were perplexed. City Council members, especially those who have endorsed Hahn, were concerned. Reporters wanted the memo, which, as it turned out, lacked the poignancy one might expect from such a secretive enterprise. Observers were incredulous. “How does an elected official take government work product to their house, conduct secret meetings for partisan political purposes, then claim it’s a private act?” a state elected official asked.
