Votes at a glance: Budget committee continues major budget items to May 25
Summary
The Budget & Appropriations Committee voted unanimously to continue items 1–3 (departmental budget hearings) and item 4 (administrative code surcharge ordinance) to the May 25 meeting; both motions were offered by Chair Ronan and seconded by President Walton and passed on a roll‑call recorded as five ayes.
During the May 18 Budget & Appropriations Committee meeting Chair Hillary Ronan moved, with a second from President Walton, to continue items 1–3 (the Mayor’s proposed two‑year departmental budgets and related salary ordinance) to the committee meeting of May 25. The clerk recorded a roll‑call vote of five ayes; the motion carried.
Chair Ronan then moved to continue item 4 — an ordinance to adjust administrative‑code surcharges on select permit and license fees and a CEQA affirmation for Board of Appeals appeals — to the May 25 meeting. That motion, also seconded by President Walton, passed on a separate roll‑call recorded as five ayes.
Vote summary (both motions): mover: Chair Hillary Ronan; seconder: President Walton; tally: 5 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain. Committee membership present and named in the record included Chair Hillary Ronan, Vice Chair Asha Safai, Supervisor Connie Chan, Supervisor Gordon Maher (expected soon during the meeting), and President Walton.
Why it matters: continuing the items buys time for additional analysis by the Budget and Legislative Analyst and provides departments a chance to respond to questions raised during the hearing. The continued schedule sets a near‑term deadline for follow‑up documentation and potential amendments.
