At its May 21 meeting the San Francisco Police Commission voted unanimously on several procedural actions: it received and filed the consent calendar, voted to hold a closed session under the San Francisco Administrative Code, and later voted not to disclose closed‑session discussions except for nonprivileged factual information on two specified items.
The commission moved to receive and file the consent calendar (agenda item 3), which included the Internal Affairs Division quarterly report for the first quarter of 2025; the Safe Streets for All first quarter 2025 update; and SFPD’s Family Code 6228 quarterly report on incident reports released for the first quarter of 2025. The motion to receive and file passed with five affirmative votes: Commissioner Leung (yes), Commissioner Clay (yes), Commissioner Benedicto (yes), Commissioner Yi (yes) and President Cindy Elias (yes).
Later the commission voted to hold a closed session under San Francisco Administrative Code section 67.1(d). The motion carried 5–0 (Leung, Clay, Benedicto, Yi and President Elias voting yes), and the meeting went into closed session. When the commission returned to open session it voted on whether to disclose any or all discussion from the closed session. By unanimous vote the commission approved a motion “to not disclose with the exception of non‑privileged factual information on items 9a and 9b,” and instructed staff to provide that factual information in the meeting minutes.
The motions were advanced on the floor with no public speakers identified as movers for the recorded motions in the transcript. The votes were recorded by roll call in open session. The commission did not disclose additional details of the closed session beyond the nonprivileged factual items noted for the minutes.
