NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CIRCULATE INITIATIVE PETITION
Notice is hereby given by the person whose name appears hereon of their intention to circulate a petition within the City and County of San Francisco for the purpose of placing on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot a measure to improve accountability within the executive branch and allow the Mayor to reorganize certain functions among city departments.
A statement of the reasons of the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows:
San Francisco's Charter now spans 548 pages, making it the longest of any major American city. More than 90 percent of City departments are embedded in the Charter itself, meaning even modest organizational improvements require voter approval. Department heads oversee 99 percent of City staff and resources, yet the Mayor has direct hire-and-removal authority over only a small fraction of them. In recent instances involving serious ethical lapses, the Mayor lacked authority to immediately remove department heads. The Charter also requires the Mayor to directly supervise nearly 50 department heads—an impractical structure for a government with more than 30,000 employees. This structure diffuses responsibility and makes it difficult for voters to know who is accountable when services fall short.
The proposed measure restores clear lines of accountability within the executive branch while preserving oversight by the Board of Supervisors. These changes ensure that when San Franciscans elect a Mayor, they know who is responsible for delivering results.

The city attorney has prepared the following title and summary of the chief purpose and points of the proposed measure:
CHANGES TO EXECUTIVE BRANCH MANAGEMENT
The Way It Is Now
The Mayor is the chief executive officer of the City and is responsible for oversight of all departments and governmental units in the executive branch, which includes most City departments.
The Mayor has authority to transfer functions and reorganize executive branch departments created by ordinance, subject to rejection by the Board of Supervisors. The Mayor may not transfer functions or reorganize department powers and duties established in the City's Charter. Those functions, powers, and duties may be changed only by an amendment to the Charter approved by the voters.
The Mayor may not hire deputy mayors who supervise most departments created in the Charter.
When a department operates under a board or commission established in the Charter, the Mayor typically must select a department head from a list of candidates recommended by the board or commission. For most of those departments, the board or commission may fire the department head but the Mayor may not.
The Mayor, Board of Supervisors, and other elected officials have authority to appoint certain members to the boards and commissions established in the Charter. In most cases, an appointed member may only be suspended or removed for cause, after a process to determine that the member engaged in official misconduct or committed a felony involving moral turpitude.
The Proposal
The proposed measure would allow the Mayor to reorganize executive branch departments that exist under the Charter, with certain exceptions. The Mayor could transfer powers and duties set forth in the Charter, consolidate one or more departments together under a single department head, and assign the oversight of transferred functions to a different commission. The Mayor could not reorganize the functions assigned to the following departments: the City Administrator, Controller, Board of Appeals, Port, Airport, Asian Art Museum, Fine Art Museums, San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, Public Utilities Commission, Civil Service Commission, Department of Human Resources, Retirement Board, Health Service System, Department of Elections, Ethics Commission, or departments headed by other elected officials. The duties of the Department of Police Accountability could not be transferred to the Police Department, nor could the duties of the Sheriff's Inspector General be transferred to the Sheriff.
The proposed measure would allow the Mayor to hire deputy mayors.
The proposed measure would expand the Mayor's authority to hire certain department heads without board or commission involvement, and would authorize the Mayor to fire most department heads without board or commission involvement.
The proposed measure would authorize appointing authorities to remove their appointees to most boards and commissions without cause. The following boards and commissions would not be impacted by this change: Board of Appeals, Civil Service Commission, and Ethics Commission. Show more »
NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CIRCULATE INITIATIVE PETITION
Notice is hereby given by the person whose name appears hereon of their intention to circulate a petition within the City and County of San Francisco for the purpose of placing on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot a measure to reform how measures are placed on the ballot in San Francisco.
A statement of the reasons of the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows:
The proposed measure reforms how measures are placed on the ballot in San Francisco to better align with the standards in other California cities. San Francisco's ballot qualification rules are far looser than those of any other major California city. The result is bloated and confusing ballots. In November 2024, voters faced 15 separate measures, compared to one in San Jose and three in Oakland.
Over the past 30 years, 74 percent of ordinances on the ballot were placed before voters by a minority of supervisors, the Mayor, or through signature drives rather than through a transparent and accountable legislative process. 44 percent did not legally require voter approval.
San Francisco is the only major city that allows a minority of supervisors to place measures directly on the ballot. It also has by far the lowest signature threshold in California—just 2 percent of registered voters. Additionally, it is the only city that allows the mayor to unliterally place measures on the ballot. Together, the status quo incentivizes special interests and politicians to weaponize the system against each other. Measures are often filled with complicated legal jargon meant to confuse voters. So-called poison pill ballot measures are more and more common, and measures can mislead voters or lead to unintended consequences. In 2022, for example, a ballot measure intended to tax Amazon was later discovered to unintentionally tax hundreds of small businesses and could only be removed through court action, despite conflicting with the drafters' intentions.
The proposed measure aligns San Francisco more closely with other California cities while preserving voters' ability to participate directly in lawmaking. These commonsense reforms encourage coalition-building, deliberation, and higher-quality measures for voters to consider while reducing confusion and unintended consequences.

Daniel Lurie
Proponent of the Initiative
The city attorney has prepared the following title and summary of the chief purpose and points of the proposed measure:
CHANGES TO BALLOT MEASURE PROCESS
The Way It Is Now
Under the City Charter, an ordinance or declaration of policy (measure) may be placed on the ballot in several ways, including:
• By a six-member majority vote of the Board of Supervisors (Board);
• By four or more members of the Board submitting the measure without a vote of the Board;
• By the Mayor submitting the measure without a vote of the Board; or
• By registered voters submitting an initiative petition to the Department of Elections (signature initiative) containing signatures of at least 2% of the registered voters in San Francisco, which currently is approximately 10,600 signatures.
A signature initiative generally appears on the ballot at the next regularly scheduled municipal or statewide election. Signature initiatives that propose an ordinance may call for an earlier election, known as a special election, if the petition contains signatures of voters equal in number to at least 10% of the votes cast for all candidates for Mayor in the last mayoral election. The threshold for a signature initiative to call a special election currently is approximately 39,000 signatures.
Once a signature initiative is submitted to the Department of Elections, it cannot be withdrawn.
The Proposal
The proposal would amend the Charter to eliminate the ability of the Mayor or four or more members of the Board to place a measure on the ballot without a vote of the Board. The Board could still place measures on the ballot by a six-member majority vote.
The proposal would change the way the voters may place a signature initiative on the ballot by increasing the required number of voter signatures to 8% of the registered voters in San Francisco, or approximately 42,500 signatures. The proposed measure would also increase the required number of voter signatures to call a special election on an initiative ordinance to 10% of the registered voters in San Francisco (instead of 10% of votes cast for all candidates for Mayor in the last mayoral election), or approximately 53,100 signatures.
The proposal would allow the proponents of a signature initiative to withdraw the signature initiative from the ballot up to 102 days before the election. Show more »
NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CIRCULATE INITIATIVE PETITION
Notice is hereby given by the person whose name appears hereon of their intention to circulate a petition within the City and County of San Francisco for the purpose of placing on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot a measure to make City contracting more efficient and professional by centralizing contracting oversight with the City Administrator, and giving the City Administrator authority to set citywide standards while preserving appropriate safeguards.
A statement of the reasons of the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows:
San Francisco's contracting system has become overly complex, politicized, and inefficient. The status quo rewards insiders and special interests, and, at its worst, it breeds corruption. Over $5 billion in annual contracts are governed by a maze of rules scattered across more than 100 sections of code. "Procurement" and "contracting" appear more than 9,000 times in City law, and the Board of Supervisors has adopted 21 procurement-related ordinances in the last five years alone.
The result is a system so complicated that the City has created 39 waivers just to allow essential purchases to move forward. It costs roughly $25,000 to conduct a single procurement process—even if the total value of the contract itself is only $25,000—and many contracts take six to twelve months to complete. More than 14 departments can be involved in approving a single contract. In extreme cases, overlapping approvals and layered rules have driven up costs dramatically, as illustrated by the widely cited $1.7 million Noe Valley public restroom.
This fragmentation also extends to technology purchasing, where departments operate redundant systems—five separate Microsoft contracts, 20 training systems, and 14 document management platforms—driving up costs and weakening efficiency. As we stare down a historic budget deficit, we must move urgently to be better stewards of taxpayer dollars and protect the core services that San Franciscans rely on.
To address these challenges, the proposed measure will get politics out of contracting by moving more contracting authority from the Board of Supervisors to the City Administrator while preserving appropriate checks and balances from the elected leaders entrusted to serve San Francisco. The improvements to the current system outlined in this measure will restore professionalism to contracting, ensure taxpayer dollars are spent efficiently and transparently, and strengthen the independence of the City Administrator to implement these changes.

Daniel Lurie
Proponent of the Initiative
The city attorney has prepared the following title and summary of the chief purpose and points of the proposed measure:
EXTENDING THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S DUTIES AND CHANGING CITY CONTRACTING
The Way It is Now
Ordinances Regulating Contracts: The Board of Supervisors (Board) may adopt ordinances that set rules about how the City selects vendors and enters into contracts for the purchase of commodities and services, public works, and grantmaking (collectively, Procurement).
Board Approval of Contracts: With some exceptions, the City's Charter requires the Board to approve contracts for all City departments in three categories: (1) contracts that generate anticipated revenue of $1,000,000 or more for the City, and any amendments to those contracts; (2) contracts that will last more than ten years or cost the City $10,000,000 or more, and amendments to those contracts costing $500,000 or more; and (3) real property leases for ten years or more or that generate $1,000,000 or more, and amendments to those agreements.
City Administrator's Authority Over Contracts and Technology: Under the Charter, the City Administrator acquires commodities and services for City departments, except for the Municipal Transportation Agency (MTA), Public Utilities Commission (PUC), Airport Commission (Airport), Port Commission (Port), and some arts departments (Charitable Trust Departments), and as limited by other City laws. The City Administrator also has authority to dispose of City personal property.
The City Administrator also oversees and adopts policies regarding certain aspects of City technology by serving as chair of the Committee on Information Technology and by appointing and managing the City's Chief Information Officer.
City Administrator's Term: The City Administrator is appointed by the Mayor to a five-year term, subject to confirmation by the Board.
The Proposal
Ordinances Regulating Contracts: The measure would give the City Administrator exclusive authority to propose ordinances to the Board governing most aspects of Procurement. Procurement ordinances proposed by the City Administrator would pass unless the Board or the Mayor rejects them within 60 days. The Board could not amend these ordinances.
Board Approval of Contracts: The measure would raise the threshold for Board approval of contracts and amendments to those contracts. For revenue-generating contracts and leases, the threshold would increase from $1,000,000 to $4,500,000. For expenditure contracts, the threshold would increase from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000. Beginning in 2032, the City's Controller would adjust these thresholds every five years for inflation. The Board would also approve amendments to contracts meeting these thresholds where the amendment would result in a cumulative increase of 50% or more of the original contract or lease amount over the amount last approved by the Board.
City Administrator's Authority Over Contracts and Technology: The measure would authorize the City Administrator to adopt Procurement rules and regulations that supersede conflicting department rules, and to establish and implement citywide policy for use of technology.
The MTA, PUC, Airport, Port, and Charitable Trust Departments would be subject to the City Administrator's authority regarding Procurement ordinances and rules, direct acquisition of commodities and services, technology, and disposal of personal property, with some exceptions.
City Administrator's Term: The measure would extend the City Administrator's term from five years to ten years. Show more »

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CIRCULATE INITIATIVE PETITION
Notice is hereby given by the persons whose names appear hereon of their intention to circulate a petition within the City and County of San Francisco for the purpose of placing on the November 3, 2026, general election ballot a measure to prevent catastrophic Muni service cuts while investing in making Muni safer, more reliable and affordable.
A statement of the reasons of the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows:
The Stronger Muni for All Measure reflects San Franciscans' long-standing commitment to a world-class transit system that gets seniors to their appointments, workers to their jobs, and kids to school.
In the latest available customer satisfaction survey, Muni received its highest scores in 20 years while weekday ridership has rebounded to more than 75% of pre-pandemic levels. But the expiration of state and federal funds and lingering impacts of the Covid economic downturn has created a large budget shortfall. Without securing a reasonable and dedicated source of funding, Muni service will be severely cut, resulting in up to 20 bus routes canceled and doubled wait times. The economic rebound of the past year will be erased and our city will be far less affordable, pushing out more of our neighbors. Further, San Francisco already has the third worst traffic of any city in the United States. Without protecting Muni service, thousands of additional cars will fill the streets, further exacerbating traffic, gridlock, and commute times for transit riders, motorists and cyclists alike.
Over the past year, Muni has demonstrated a new era of fiscal discipline and community engagement. Commonsense reforms have yielded ongoing annual savings of nearly $137 million by eliminating over 500 vacant positions, consolidating operations to eliminate management positions and implementing more efficient operations to get buses to their destinations faster.
This measure proposes a progressively structured parcel tax on commercial and residential properties. 95% of San Francisco's single family residences are capped at $129 annually, with those in larger homes subject to progressively higher rates. The largest commercial properties pay up to $400,000 annually, making sure everyone pays their fair share.
Funds generated by this measure will be subject to strict oversight and accountability requirements, including financial efficiency reviews and oversight by a citizens committee to ensure all revenues are spent on maintaining and improving Muni service.

Kat Siegal Rodney Fong Tony Delorio
Proponents of the Initiative
The city attorney has prepared the following title and summary of the chief purpose and points of the proposed measure:
PARCEL TAX TO FUND PUBLIC TRANSIT OPERATIONS
The Way It is Now
The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) is a City department that manages Muni buses, light rail vehicles, streetcars, and cable cars. These services are funded by transit fares, and local, state and federal sources, but not through a parcel tax.
Owners of rent-controlled residential property in the City are generally limited in what costs they can pass onto their tenants.
State law limits the total revenue, including tax revenue, the City may spend each year. The voters may approve increases to this limit for up to four years.
The Proposal
The measure would impose an annual tax on parcels of real property in San Francisco beginning on July 1, 2027, and continuing until June 30, 2042. The tax would be adjusted annually for inflation. The proposed 2027 tax rates would be:
* Single-Family Residential Parcels: Base tax of $129 for the first 3,000 square feet of building area, plus marginal rates of: $0.42 per square foot of building area between 3,001 and 5,000 square feet, and $1.99 per square foot of building area over 5,000 square feet.
* Multifamily Residential Parcels: Base tax of $249 for the first 5,000 square feet of building area, plus a marginal rate of $0.195 per square foot of building area over 5,000 square feet, capped at $50,000 per parcel.
* Non-Residential Parcels: Base tax of $799 for the first 5,000 square feet of building area, plus marginal rates of: $0.76 per square foot of building area between 5,001 and 50,000 square feet, $0.84 per square foot of building area between 50,001 and 250,000 square feet, and $0.99 per square foot of building area over 250,000 square feet, capped at $400,000 per parcel.
* Mixed-Use Parcels: Base tax of $799, plus a combination of the marginal rates for residential and non-residential parcels above if the mixed-use parcel has more than 5,000 square feet of building area, capped at $400,000 per parcel.
* Parcels with No Buildings: No tax if the land area is up to 2,000 square feet, or $392 if the land area is over 2,000 square feet.
The tax would not apply to:
1. Properties or portions of properties not required to pay property taxes based on value; and
2. The building area of any single-room-occupancy unit and any shared facilities.
Most properties owned and occupied as a primary residence by a person who is at least 65 years-old would either be exempt from the tax or entitled to a tax reduction. Owners of rent-controlled residential units could pass through up to 50% of the tax to their tenants, capped at $65 per unit, if the initial base rent was set before June 1, 2027.
Revenues from the tax would be used exclusively for the costs of administering the tax and for SFMTA transit operations.
This measure would increase the City's spending limit for four years. Show more »

CITY COLLEGE OF SAN FRANCISCO
PUBLIC NOTICE
NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF DRAFT SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT FOR THE OCEAN CAMPUS PARKING GARAGE PROJECT
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City College of San Francisco (CCSF) has completed a Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (Draft SEIR) addressing the potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed development of a parking garage building on the CCSF Ocean campus.
Updated Facilities Master Plan EIR:
CCSF's Updated Facilities Master Plan EIR was certified by the CCSF Board of Trustees on June 24, 2021 (SCH # 2020090261).
The Draft SEIR for the CCSF Parking Structure Project is now available for review through the College's website: www.ccsf.edu/facilities, and at Rosenberg Library, 50 Frida Kahlo Way, San Francisco, California 94112 and Ingleside Branch Library, 1298 Ocean Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112.
The City College of San Francisco will accept public comments on the Draft SEIR beginning March 17, 2026, through April 30, 2026. Comments on the Draft EIR may be made in writing, with a contact name and return address or email, and should be sent to:
Facilities Construction and Planning City College of San Francisco
50 Frida Kahlo Way, Bungalow 606 San Francisco, CA 94112
or via email to: Facilities@ccsf.edu
PROJECT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
The proposed CCSF Parking Structure Project would be located on a 68,000-square-foot (1.55-acre) site located at 95 Frida Kahlo Way within the CCSF Ocean Campus. The Ocean Campus Parking Structure Project would have a footprint of approximately 200,000 square feet and would consist of five above-ground levels. The parking garage would have a height of up to approximately 52.5 feet to the top of the building parapet. The parking garage would be designed to accommodate the future installation of photovoltaic panels and their associated structures above the building's uppermost deck. The top level of the photovoltaic structure installation would be approximately 58 feet above grade. The parking garage would provide approximately 641 vehicle parking spaces with designated space on the ground floor for the Campus' Police Department (about 4,000 square feet) and Custodial Services (3,500 square feet).
The Draft SEIR serves as a supplement to update the analysis presented in the CCSF's Updated Facilities Master Plan EIR, which was certified by the College on June 24, 2021 (State Clearinghouse No. 2020090261). The Draft SEIR specifically addresses the development of a parking garage at the Ocean Campus and contains additions or changes to the 2021 EIR necessary to evaluate the proposed changes to the Project and changed circumstances under State CEQA Guidelines section 15163 and Public Resources Code section 21166.
POTENTIAL SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
Based on analysis provided in the Draft SEIR, it was determined that there would be less than significant impacts or no impacts related to aesthetics, air quality, agricultural and forestry resources, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, land use and planning, mineral resources, noise, population and housing, public services, recreation, utilities and service systems, transportation and wildfire. There would be less than significant impacts with mitigation related to cultural resources, biological resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, and tribal cultural resources.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
BAY AREA AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT DISTRICT
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO AIR DISTRICT REGULATION 11: HAZARDOUS POLLUTANTS, RULE 18: REDUCTION OF RISK FROM TOXIC AIR CONTAMINANTS AT EXISTING FACILITIES
Notice is hereby given that the Board of Directors of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (Air District) will conduct a public hearing on June 3, 2026, in the 1st floor Board Room, 375 Beale Street, San Francisco, California, at 10:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, to receive testimony on proposed amendments to Air District Regulation 11: Hazardous Pollutants, Rule 18: Reduction of Risk from Toxic Air Contaminants at Existing Facilities (Rule 11-18) and on the proposal to adopt updates to the Rule 11-18 Implementation Procedures.

These proposed amendments focus on measures aimed at accelerating risk reduction and improving program efficiency to implement the requirements of the Rule as soon as feasible. The amendments are expected to expedite not only the overall implementation of the Rule but also the reduction of toxic emissions and health risks from affected facilities.
Air District staff has also developed proposed updates to the Rule 11-18 Implementation Procedures, which include aligning with the proposed amended rule language; improving clarity and readability; and defining the role, scope, and process for a Dispute Resolution Panel that is expected to hear disputes between refineries and the Air District about technical issues.
At the June 3, 2026 meeting, the Board of Directors will consider adopting these amendments to Rule 11-18 and updates to the Rule 11-18 Implementation Procedures.
Air District Staff has prepared a written analysis describing the regulatory context of the amendments pursuant to California Health and Safety Code § 40727.2, as well as an addendum to the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) describing the amendments and discussing why a subsequent or supplemental EIR is not required.
