Summary

Ike Quan, who highlighted infrastructure work and connections to wastewater technology pilots, was advanced by the Rules Committee for appointment to the Treasure Island Development Authority after multiple public speakers and nonprofit representatives voiced support.

The Rules Committee on June 3 moved forward the mayor’s appointment of Ike Quan to the Treasure Island Development Authority board.

Quan, who identified himself as chief operating officer in government affairs at the California Academy of Sciences and a former SFPUC member, cited experience working on Treasure Island wastewater and infrastructure issues and said he had spent time on the island assessing immediate and long‑term resident needs. He described a wastewater technology that could “shrink the size of a wastewater plant by two‑thirds,” and said he had engaged with residents during recent visits.

Supervisors praised Quan’s community engagement and subject‑matter experience. Public commenters representing Friends of the Urban Forest, nonprofit partners, and Treasure Island residents spoke in favor and described Quan as community‑oriented and experienced in regional projects.

After public comment the committee amended the item and approved forwarding the nomination to the full Board with a recommendation to confirm, passing the motion without objection.
