An anti-cop member of the independent commission overseeing Oakland’s police is back at the center of a growing political firestorm after being elevated in a vote critics are calling a violation of the law. Oakland’s Police Commission voted on March 26 to advance Omar Farmer from an alternate to a full member without listing the action on a public agenda, triggering a formal legal challenge alleging a violation of California’s open-meeting law. The commission is expected to retake the vote on Thursday, according to Rajni Mandal, an Oakland physician who filed a formal demand to “cure and correct” what appears to be a violation of the Brown Act, the law governing California’s public meeting laws.
