Summary

San Francisco Architectural Heritage told the commission it supports three Mills Act contracts. After Supervisor Avalos questioned whether some applicants truly need tax relief, the committee voted to forward the contracts to the full Board without recommendation.

San Francisco Architectural Heritage told the Historic Preservation Commission it supports three contracts under the Mills Act and planning staff provided a brief overview of those items. Committee member Supervisor Avalos questioned whether the properties applying for Mills Act benefits this year were "truly in need of a property tax break," prompting further discussion.

Following that exchange the committee decided to forward the three contracts to the full Board of Supervisors without a recommendation. Planning staff said they will present evidence to the full Board in the coming weeks and keep sponsors and stakeholders informed.

The committee did not take a final action to grant Mills Act terms; instead the matter will be considered at a future Board meeting.
