Rules Committee forwards three advisory‑board appointments to full Board

SAN FRANCISCO — The Board of Supervisors Rules Committee on May 1 advanced three advisory‑board appointments to the full Board, approving the nominations by voice vote with no recorded objections.

Supervisor David Campos introduced and moved the appointment to the Bicycle Advisory Committee, which the committee approved after the applicant described his experience as a District 9 daily commuter and prior safety work. Supervisor Campos praised the candidate’s background and commitment, saying he was “very appreciative that you’re willing to serve the city.” Supervisor Katie Tang seconded the motion; Chair Supervisor Norman Yee noted the motion passed with no objection.

The committee also moved forward Jana Lord’s reappointment to the Graffiti Advisory Board. Lord identified herself as the board’s vice chair and said she represents Clear Channel under the SFMTA bus‑shelter contract. Lord described outreach plans, including proposed public service advertising and a “call 311” campaign to encourage reporting of vandalism. Supervisor Campos moved the item and amended the motion to waive the residency requirement; the committee approved the waiver and forwarded the appointment to the full Board.

For the Single‑Room Occupancy (SRO) Task Force, Bruce Burge sought renewal of his membership and described his role as a property manager overseeing several large properties and prior task‑force work on bed‑bug responses and safety recommendations. Supervisor Tang moved to forward Burge’s renewal to the full Board with a residency waiver; the motion passed without objection. (The transcript records a typographical reference to “Mr. Burch” during the motion; the committee record and the applicant’s presentation identify him as Bruce Burge.)

All three items were moved to the May 13 Board of Supervisors meeting for final action.

What happens next: The nominations will appear on the full Board agenda on May 13 for formal confirmation.
