Deputy City Administrator Stephanie Tang and Regina Chan, director of the Contract Monitoring Division, presented the item as a technical correction rather than a policy change. They said current practice adjusts threshold figures for inflation but the code text still shows outdated dollar amounts, creating confusion for bidders and staff. The legislation replaces outdated numbers with clearly defined concepts and current dollar figures timed to the fiscal year and CPI adjustments, the presenters said.

Regina Chan explained the operational consequence: the administrative code online can show different numbers than the amounts departments use, and the proposed ordinance harmonizes the code text with current practice. No members of the public spoke on the item. The committee moved the ordinance to the full Board with a recommendation and the motion passed without objection (Vice Chair Cheryl, President Mandelman and Chair Walton voted \"aye\").","The Rules Committee unanimously sent an ordinance updating administrative code Chapter 14B to align contracting thresholds and local business enterprise eligibility with current consumer price index adjustments.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6551767,"Rules Committee recommends Kath Sakalakis to EIFD Public Financing Authority; agenda name discrepancy noted",241,1267000,1508000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5327939-2b6781e5dd4515d02f4914532077cf01&start=1267&end=1508","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5327939-2b6781e5dd4515d02f4914532077cf01/thumbnail_1267000.jpg","/articles/6551767/San-Francisco-County/California/Rules-Committee-recommends-Kath-Sakalakis-to-EIFD-Public-Financing-Authority-agenda-name-discrepancy-noted","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6551767-ee8261b28be8b2548dcd62557cb81591/orig.mp4?Expires=1771144546&Signature=iGbuVC2g-oS~PsnkeJNth9v6gcyDFebzDeNpP7SAhqqtkkvVUd9h83oR2HP~qNlVXnPFyA-8JH-vXhek5jBprUVeHAgD0itn9e5Xgv89rNzWHcbumi2Goy6BvNNruNfTlcE7wt7wLl-4QlsXXCz-A2g6U5OfMxuyyrFl7-qOWI5O49FWMofP-pv~0sxrjr-j-ww35daQ77IJxaSTLRK-ATZhjGMfC0Re3i1HUlbRf2e5gOKegIXSuxgKvCAP6gIHJSujmyr0HZj9313Ohx-RhlZjoP8z2sZa5zOlD40qhcdQPTi4QHckokCx2eXM8~SCXEEYPrQAmlQ5z6qKfqDjmA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Rules Committee recommended forwarding to the full Board the nomination for appointment to the Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) Public Financing Authority and approved the committee report without objection.

Kristen Evans, who identified herself as the current Seat 6 commissioner, addressed the committee and asked to be reappointed. She summarized her work on the commission and advocacy on housing-first approaches, citing Proposition C (\"Our City, Our Home,\" 2018) as central to funding permanent supportive housing. Evans told the committee that voters approved Prop C and that it has helped \"over 5,000 people including 1,700 children\" obtain housing; she also said \"96% of households placed in permanent supportive housing have stayed housed.\" She argued against a shelter-only strategy and urged prioritizing prevention, affordable housing and placement into permanent supportive housing rather than expanded congregate shelter.

Public commenters and commissioners echoed the importance of the seat's advocacy focus. Former Supervisor Bevan Dufty (speaking as a member of the public) described the commission's bipartisan work and praised Evans's efforts. Commissioner Guerrero, who holds the lived-experience seat on the Homelessness Oversight Commission, said Evans is \"the most active, trusted, and effective member\" of the commission and warned that removing her would increase public pressure on supervisors.

After public comment, the committee approved a motion to continue the item to the call of the chair. Vice Chair Cheryl (Cheryl) and President Rafael Mandelman voted \"aye\" along with Chair Shamann Walton; the motion passed without objection.

The committee record indicates that Commissioner Evans's term had expired and that she did not submit an application for reappointment prior to the meeting, which the chair read into the record while opening the item. The committee did not take a final appointment vote at this meeting.","The Rules Committee voted to continue consideration of reappointment for Seat 6 on the Homelessness Oversight Commission after public testimony and a candidate statement by current commissioner Kristen Evans.","actionData","errors"]
