GAO Committee Public Comment: Build More Homes!
Show up. Give public comment. Help the Government Audit & Oversight Committee hear support for the inclusionary ordinance — before they decide what version goes to the full Board.
On Thursday, July 2 at 10:00 AM, the Government Audit & Oversight Committee will review, amend, and make a recommendation on the inclusionary ordinance to the full Board of Supervisors. This is the committee that decides what version of the bill the Board sees. The Board's final vote on July 22 will be on whatever the committee sends them — which makes this the moment our voices most directly shape the final legislation.
On May 19, Mayor Lurie and Supervisor Melgar introduced an ordinance to update inclusionary housing requirements and a charter amendment to expand affordable housing financing — so the homes the Family Zoning Plan made legal can actually get built.
On Thursday, July 2 at 10:00 AM, the Committee will take public comment as part of its review. RSVP and we'll send you everything you need.
What to expect
Public comment is 2 minutes per person. You don't need to be a policy expert. You need to be a constituent who wants more homes in San Francisco. We'll send you one-page comment drafts from different perspectives. Read them or customize as you like!
What this hearing is about
The Government Audit & Oversight Committee is one of the Board of Supervisors' standing committees. It reviews proposed legislation, considers amendments, and recommends a final version to the full Board. The committee's recommendation shapes what the eleven supervisors are actually voting on at the final hearing — so visible support here doesn't just signal where constituents stand, it shapes the bill itself.
Hosted by Abundant SF, in coalition with the Housing Action Coalition and SF YIMBY.
Build more homes. For a San Francisco everyone can afford.
