Votes at a glance: Board adopts series of finance, housing and planning measures; appointments approved
Summary
On April 2 the Board approved a set of resolutions and ordinances on the consent and adoption calendars — including a five‑year financial plan, multifamily housing revenue bonds, Moscone financing, a planning‑code historic district map, and appointments to the Mental Health Board — mostly by unanimous or near‑unanimous votes.
Several items on the board’s calendar were adopted with limited debate on April 2. This roundup lists the key outcomes recorded on the meeting transcript.
- Item 9 — Resolution adopting the City’s five‑year financial plan for fiscal years 2013–14 through 2017–18. The board adopted the plan by unanimous voice/consent on the adoption calendar; the resolution satisfies a charter requirement tied to Proposition 8.
- Item 10 — Resolution authorizing issuance and delivery of multifamily housing revenue bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed approximately $23,900,000 to finance acquisition and construction of the Broadway Sansom Apartments (75 units). Adopted by the board on the consent calendar.
- Item 11 — Resolution authorizing the Mayor’s Office of Housing, as successor housing agency to the redevelopment agency, to amend a ground lease with Broadway Sansom Associates for affordable housing at 255 Broadway and making requisite findings. Adopted on consent.
- Item 12 — Resolution providing for the sale of certificates of participation to finance capital projects at the Moscone Convention Center. Adopted on consent.
- Item 14 — Ordinance adding Appendix M to Article 10 (preservation of historic landmarks) and creating the Market Street Masonry Historic District. Passed first reading on a roll‑call vote of 11 ayes.
- Item 18 — Appointments to the Mental Health Board: Errol Wisham (term ending 01/31/2015), Melody Daniel, Ellis Joseph, Lena Miller, and Marlene Flores (terms ending 01/31/2016). Roll‑call vote recorded as 11 ayes; motion approved.
- Item 19 — Ordinance deleting the sunset provision of the Excelsior Alcohol Restricted Use District; moved from Land Use Committee and passed in the first reading under same‑house/same‑call procedures.
- Items 22–23 — Adoption calendar items were approved by a single roll‑call vote (11 ayes). The clerk recorded adoption of the resolutions labeled Items 22 and 23.
These items were recorded on the consent and adoption calendars and, except where noted, were adopted without separate public debate at the full board meeting. Several items had been discussed in committee previously. For items that require further administrative steps (bond closings, lease amendments, appointment filings), responsible departments will proceed with implementation and return with required documents where appropriate.
