Supervisor Mercarini urged colleagues to support the override, saying the measure advances transparency: \"San Francisco being literally one of the strongest cities in the United States that practices its transparency... why would we go backwards now when we have something that for really very little money... enables us to then webcast live and provide details of up to literally 60 commissions and task forces\"; he added that the estimated cost was \"$76,000 a year\" and framed it as preventing litigation and promoting sunshine.

During roll call the override passed with eight ayes and three noes; the chair announced \"the veto is overwritten.\" The action amends the administrative code to require recording and public posting of recordings for City Hall hearing rooms equipped with recording capability.

Why it matters: the change expands transparency obligations for City Hall meetings and requires the city to publish audio/video recordings online for rooms that have such equipment. Board members debating the override framed it as an inexpensive way to increase access to government deliberations.

Next steps: the ordinance amendment will be implemented by the affected departments to ensure recordings are posted to the city's website in accordance with the revised code section.

The agreement authorizes a limited-service cafe intended as a youth workforce development program and includes city funding to support the first year of operations.

The board discussed rent, program funding, wages and operator experience during a lengthy question-and-answer session. John Updike of the Real Estate Division explained the proposed rent would be $200 per month. The budget analyst summarized a package of city contributions totaling $219,092 for the first year, including $180,000 in general fund dollars allocated for operating costs and $35,000 from the Department of Children, Youth and Their Families (DCYF) as a one-time startup grant.

Supervisor McGoldrick asked whether the $9.36 hourly wage for youth trainees met the city's minimum standards; board staff confirmed $9.36 was the San Francisco minimum wage at the time. Members pressed whether prevailing wage or benefits would be required; city staff and the deputy city attorney said prevailing wage was not required for this subsidized youth training program and noted the program structure differed from a typical city contractor arrangement.

Margaret Brodkin of DCYF described Juma Ventures as a long-time grantee that \"specializes in development of youth primarily by providing employment opportunities for them and mentoring through corporate, stepping stone to additional employment opportunities.\" Brodkin said Juma has operated concessions at AT&T Park and other venues and tracks participants after completion; she said 97% of program participants were employed after the program. Brian Chu of the mayor's Office of Community Development said MOCD and DCYF felt comfortable funding Juma because of its record reaching underserved youth.

Supervisors also sought details about the program's food offerings and the limited kitchen facilities in North Light Court. Real Estate staff said the site lacks kitchen access for food preparation beyond beverage service, so the operation would rely primarily on prepackaged food items and on-site coffee beverage preparation. Updike said the lease ties performance to the operator's business plan and noted the contract would permit future renegotiation of terms and market-rate adjustments at extensions.

The board adopted the lease authorization; supervisors said they would monitor the program and its youth-training outcomes. Several supervisors who had initial reservations said city staff and Juma representatives'answers convinced them the program merited approval.

","The Board approved a lease for 2,400 sq ft in City Hall's North Light Court to nonprofit Juma Ventures for a limited-service cafe paired with a youth workforce-development program. Supervisors questioned wages, menu options and operator experience before voting to approve.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6601866,"Board of Supervisors votes to delay decision on proposed combustion turbine projects for one week",448,616000,1064000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3005801-9ac6d671a5f8a00cd24ae1a7183ce435&start=616&end=1064","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3005801-9ac6d671a5f8a00cd24ae1a7183ce435/thumbnail_616000.jpg","/articles/6601866/San-Francisco-County/California/Board-of-Supervisors-votes-to-delay-decision-on-proposed-combustion-turbine-projects-for-one-week","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6601866-118e47ff84a1a2d132f47d44638413e5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771192059&Signature=ctp0NVdqMlf~lyPi5JpConodLj1NP-Zcg3eu2OGUS1W8K2eLHo~msAgFlpmhMrz3NipzMYE~Km6NPP78WPT7qlNAK8XGslU3dSUQQxlUIqXpFYRuoqWvRJpXQ4bLuqUXfxnST5N~5H71MsqXA5gFOolmgG~J3cnfCqqdYEXaE8WNprd4JbaKVGrkPhX5Y5xLYDBpqaI9y5MmvvZHI8aeBrpfvM3wOcCdbafTS8NOcMrbeyar41dUXJPnVUSW4DEDihb1ivT2PYQ739jhbwBNm0CPXMt3z~9XOq5rwP7uuGGcboADUMg30nUAXxl5CXraOJRaY0tFXIoun3mTPKVIvg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on May 13 voted to continue consideration of ordinance and contract items related to proposed combustion turbine projects, including agreements for development at San Francisco International Airport and sites at 20 Fifth and Maryland Streets, for one week.

Supporters of the continuance said the mayor's office asked for time to pursue alternative options. Supervisor Maxwell moved for a one-week continuance; Supervisor Alioto Pier seconded the motion. Mr. Berry, a representative from the mayor's office, told the board the mayor \"has indicated he'd like to be sure, he's exploring all options,\" and that the office would use the week to \"continue that investigation.\" Maxwell told colleagues, \"I'd like a one week continuance on this item, please.\" The motion to continue passed with 11 ayes.

Why it matters: the items on the calendar would authorize agreements and financing tied to new combustion turbine capacity and related leases, environmental findings and certificates of participation. Supervisors who opposed moving immediately to a final vote said they wanted to ensure alternatives had been fully explored; others said the board should not delay indefinitely. Supervisor Mercarini told colleagues the issue requires diligence and alternatives that prevent returning to \"ground zero.\"

What happened in the meeting: board members debated whether the week would produce substantive new technical information or merely political repositioning from the mayor's office. Supervisor Maxwell said he did not expect \"any significant new information in the next week,\" but supported the short delay to allow the executive branch to present any new options. Supervisor Daley made the original motion to continue; Alioto Pier seconded it.

Next steps: the items were continued for one week, and the board will revisit the ordinance and associated agreements at a subsequent meeting. The mayor's office indicated it planned to use the continuance to continue exploring alternatives; the board may proceed to an up-or-down vote or refer the matter to the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission depending on developments.

Votes and formal action: the board adopted a continuance motion on the combustion turbine-related items; the motion carried with 11 ayes.

","The San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted to continue consideration of the city's proposed combustion turbine (CT) projects for one week to allow the mayor's office more time to explore alternatives. The continuance passed unanimously on the motion as presented.","actionData","errors"]
