The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on April 26 adopted a slate of ordinances, resolutions and contract actions covering homelessness, public works, housing finance and public safety, and moved one land‑use appeal to a May 3 hearing.
The measures approved ranged from a new shelter grievance advisory committee (administrative code amendment) to authorizations for Homekey and Moscone Center financing. Most items were adopted unanimously on consent or by “same house, same call.” One ordinance establishing a shelter grievance advisory committee passed 10‑1.
By a recorded roll call the board continued the public‑hearing items 21 through 24 — the appeal of the public works decision approving a tentative map for a two‑lot subdivision at 0 Palo Alto Avenue — to the May 3 meeting. The roll call on the continuance was recorded as 11 ayes.

Most items were taken without debate on the floor. Where recorded, roll calls and the clerk’s minutes are the official record of tally and motion makers. The board also accepted committee reports and scheduled a number of future hearings and introductions noted on the floor.
The board adjourned after in‑memoriams and a final series of remarks from supervisors.
Votes at a glance: the clerk’s on‑record tallies on the floor showed a mixture of unanimous approvals and one 10–1 final passage (shelter grievance advisory committee ordinance). Several other items were taken on first reading (noted above) and will return for final adoption where required by law.
Details of individual items, the motions recorded, and the exact roll‑call excerpts are in the board minutes and the official transcript of the April 26 meeting.
