The San Francisco Housing Authority held a commission meeting on July 4, 2025, where key discussions included an acknowledgment of the Ramaytush Ohlone community and a brief overview of the meeting's agenda.
The meeting commenced with a roll call, confirming the presence of all commissioners, including President Joaquin Torres and Commissioners Leroy Lindo, Luana Kim, and Mary Anne Bikes. Following the roll call, the commission recognized that they were meeting on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone, the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula. This acknowledgment emphasized the importance of respecting the rights and heritage of the Ramaytush Ohlone community, affirming their role as caretakers of the land.
President Torres noted that there were no additional reports from him at this time and expressed eagerness for the presentations scheduled for the meeting. The meeting then moved to the general public comment section, where attendees were reminded that this portion was not for debate but for individuals to state their concerns or matters for the commission's attention. No public comments were made during this time, leading to the closure of that segment of the meeting.
The meeting's proceedings highlight the commission's commitment to recognizing indigenous communities and maintaining open lines of communication with the public, setting the stage for further discussions in future meetings.
