The San Francisco Planning Commission meeting on July 24, 2025, focused on several key decisions, including a motion regarding community engagement and a presentation from the University of San Francisco (USF) about its institutional master plan.

The meeting began with a motion to continue discussions to September 11, which ultimately failed with a vote of 3 to 4. Commissioners Campbell, McGarry, Braun, and Imperial voted against the motion, while Williams, Moore, and Tsao supported it.

Following this, the commission moved to a new motion concerning a recommendation for community engagement and the consideration of partial waivers related to the planning process. This motion passed with a vote of 4 to 3, with Commissioners Williams, Imperial, and Moore opposing it.

The meeting then shifted to an informational presentation by Mary Woods from the planning department regarding USF's submission of its 10-year Institutional Master Plan (IMP). The IMP is a requirement for post-secondary institutions and outlines the university's short-term and long-term development plans. The commission and the public were invited to provide comments on the plan, which is essential for guiding the university's future growth and development.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the commission's commitment to community engagement in planning processes and the importance of institutional planning for educational institutions like USF. The next steps will involve further discussions on the motions passed and continued public input on the university's master plan.
