The San Francisco Housing Authority Commission convened on December 13, 2025, to address several key agenda items, beginning with a roll call of members present. President Joaquin Torres and Commissioners Leroy Lindo, Luwannakim, and Mary Anne Pikes were in attendance.

The meeting commenced with an acknowledgment of the Ramaytush Ohlone community, recognizing their ancestral ties to the land and affirming their rights as the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula. This acknowledgment highlighted the importance of respecting indigenous heritage and the ongoing responsibilities of the community.

In the president's report, President Torres expressed gratitude for the successful Thanksgiving turkey giveaways, which were conducted in partnership with various city departments to support families in need. He also thanked Doctor Letijou for efforts to ensure that holiday initiatives benefit children and families.

The meeting then opened the floor for general public comments. Dennis Williams, a micro real estate developer, raised concerns regarding the lack of equal opportunities for BIPOC developers in San Francisco. He emphasized the need for expanded homeownership opportunities for Black residents and proposed the creation of a preference program for Black developers and property management firms in city contracts.

Following public comments, the tenant representative report was presented by Stephanie Pappas, who announced her departure from the tenant council after securing a housing voucher. She informed the commission of the election of a new president, Michael Zorns, and invited a commissioner to attend the swearing-in ceremony scheduled for January 30.

The meeting concluded with a commitment to follow up on the discussed matters, including the public comments and the upcoming tenant council elections. The commission's focus on community engagement and support for marginalized groups was evident throughout the proceedings.
