Summary

The Commission on the Environment voted to approve its 2018 annual report, a legally mandated submission, after a brief discussion and a small edit to acknowledge SFPUC participation in a rally referenced in the report.

Commissioners voted to finalize the commission's 2018 annual report and forward the document to the mayor in accordance with applicable law.

Charles Sheehan, chief policy and public affairs officer, walked commissioners through the report and highlighted milestones from 2018: filling the commission roster with recent appointments, participation in the Global Climate Action Summit, several special meetings and community strategic-plan workshops, and the department's racial-equity initiative. Sheehan described the report as both a legal requirement and a way to summarize the year's accomplishments.

Commissioner Ron (Charles Sheehan and others) requested a substantive edit under the clean power plan rally paragraph to add recognition of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission and its general manager; staff agreed to incorporate that change. Commissioner Walt moved approval of the draft as amended; the motion was seconded and the commission approved the report.

The approved report will be provided to the mayor as required by law.
