The San Francisco County Budget and Finance Committee convened on July 4, 2025, to discuss several key agenda items, primarily focusing on resolutions related to public safety, environmental sustainability, and infrastructure agreements.

The meeting commenced with a public comment session regarding items 8 and 9, which concluded without any speakers. The committee then voted unanimously to forward both items to the full board with a positive recommendation.

The first significant item discussed was a resolution authorizing the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) to accept a grant of approximately $72,275 from the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services. This funding is designated for the Paul Coverdell Forensic Science Improvement Program, aimed at enhancing the capabilities of the SFPD crime lab. The project will run from April 1, 2024, to March 31, 2025, and includes provisions for staff training and equipment procurement.

Following this, the committee addressed a resolution to accept an in-kind gift of 1,800 units of naloxone, valued at approximately $81,300. This initiative, part of the California Naloxone Distribution Project, aims to combat opioid overdoses. The SFPD has been receiving naloxone kits since 2019, with nearly 1,000 deployments reported, primarily in the Tenderloin District.

The committee then moved on to item 12, which involved a resolution approving a new 10-year water service contract with the United States Department of Energy for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. This contract, effective from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2034, is expected to generate approximately $66 million in revenue for the city.

Next, the committee discussed a resolution for a greenhouse gas-free energy contract with Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). This contract, valued at approximately $8.9 million for the year 2025, aims to secure renewable electricity supplies to meet the city’s clean energy targets.

Lastly, the committee reviewed a resolution to amend the Treasure Island Land and Structures Master Lease with the United States Navy, extending the lease term by one year. This amendment is necessary due to the Navy's requirement for annual lease renewals.

Public comments were invited for each of these items, but no speakers came forward. Each resolution was subsequently moved to the full board with a positive recommendation, receiving unanimous support from the committee members.

The meeting concluded with no additional business, marking a productive session focused on enhancing public safety, environmental initiatives, and infrastructure agreements in San Francisco County.
