Board amends resolution on state short‑term‑rental bill and continues action to May 3
Summary
Supervisors amended and then continued a resolution opposing California Senate Bill 1102 (short‑term‑rental provisions) after floor amendments strengthened protections for local tax and transparency authority; the item was continued to the board’s May 3 meeting for further review and outreach to the legislator.
Supervisor David Campos brought a resolution urging opposition to California Senate Bill 1102, which would affect state collection of transient‑occupancy taxes and restrict local access to listing data for short‑term rental platforms.
Supervisor Campos said the bill would give the state a role in collecting transient‑occupancy taxes (TOT) from hosting platforms while also restricting local governments’ access to data needed to enforce local rules. He and the city’s tax collector and city attorney’s office proposed amendments to strengthen the resolution and to protect San Francisco’s local authority. The San Francisco Chronicle and other local sources were cited in a revised whereas clause during the floor discussion.
Supervisor Wiener moved to continue the item one week to allow conversations with the bill’s author and additional stakeholder input; that motion was seconded. A roll call followed after supervisors adopted Campos’s cleanup amendments. The board voted to continue the item to the May 3 meeting so the sponsor and staff can consult with Sacramento and refine the local position; the motion to continue passed without objection.
