Accusation against former COO Kris Michell follows a judge's order that city produce records sought by defendant in civil lawsuit
San Diego City Attorney Mara Elliott is publicly accusing former Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s chief operating officer of ordering employees to scrub emails and other records of the Ash Street lease in the days before she resigned.
Michell was a longtime city official who served three Republican mayors before submitting her resignation in September 2020. She could not be reached for comment Friday about the letter and its allegation. Two weeks ago, Judge Timothy Taylor ordered the City Attorney’s Office to turn over documents that had been requested by lawyers representing former mayoral adviser Jason Hughes.
“We would like to understand your actions, which records were shared, for what reason, and were copies or originals of those records maintained by the city,” the letter to Michell said. Cisterra, the landlord in both the Ash Street deal and the lease-to-own contract for the Civic Center Plaza, has denied any wrongdoing and defended the transactions as good investments for the city.
