The San Francisco Commission convened on July 4, 2025, to address key agenda items, including the approval of significant funding for affordable housing. The commission unanimously approved a commitment of $46.26 million in permanent gap loan funds for the development of 151 affordable senior rental housing units at Transbay Block 2 West. This initiative aims to enhance housing accessibility for seniors in the city, aligning with ongoing efforts to address the housing crisis.
During the meeting, the commission also reviewed and approved the minutes from the previous meeting held on April 18, 2023, and authorized an amendment to a contract with Forrester and Kroger Landscape Maintenance Inc. This amendment increases the contract's contingency expenditure authority by $20,000, ensuring continued landscape maintenance services in the South Beach area.
The meeting included procedural announcements, emphasizing the prohibition of sound-producing electronic devices and outlining public comment procedures. Members of the public were encouraged to participate, although no comments were received on the consent items.
With all members present, the commission demonstrated a commitment to advancing community-focused initiatives, particularly in the realm of affordable housing. The next meeting is scheduled for May 16, 2023, where further discussions on community development and public services are anticipated.
