At its Aug. 17 meeting the San Francisco Historic Preservation Commission reviewed a quarterly landmark‑designation work program, asked staff to prioritize items with substantial work or imminent threats, and heard public comment urging protection for Grama Oriente properties and Van Ness street lamps.

The San Francisco Historic Preservation Commission on Aug. 17 reviewed about 40 candidate landmark nominations and directed staff to return in September with a prioritization plan that will advance items with substantial work already done and those identified as threatened.

Susan Parks, a department staff member presenting the quarterly update, said staff had three designations finalized in the last reporting quarter (landmark Nos. 270–272) and that the survey team is now fully staffed with several designations in progress.
