Board approves FY2010 budget; supervisors press administration on CNA restorations
Summary
The Board of Supervisors approved the City and County of San Francisco's fiscal year 2009-10 consolidated budget and salary ordinance, while several supervisors pressed the administration to clarify how restored funds will affect certified nursing assistant (CNA) positions.
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on July 28 approved the city's consolidated budget and related annual salary ordinance for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010, while supervisors pressed staff and the administration for clarification about restored funding for certified nursing assistant positions at city health facilities.
Supervisors voted 9-2 to pass the remaining portions of items 16 and 17, the annual salary ordinance and consolidated budget and appropriation ordinance. The Board took an earlier divided roll call to resolve a separate question about funding for the Community Justice Center; that divided portion passed 7-4.
Why it matters: Supervisors said portions of the adopted budget include partial restorations for CNAs after earlier proposed downgrades in classifications and pay. Dozens of long-term care workers and advocates had sought full restorations; Board members signaled they intend to pursue further action to correct earlier position downgrades and pay changes.
