Top issues during term (8)(General)
Personnel Appointment
While no direct costs are mentioned, a good manager could save the city money down the line.
Project Labor Agreement Push
About $80,000 for the study and negotiator now; the bigger question is whether a PLA raises or stabilizes construction costs on multi-million-dollar city projects.
Anti-Displacement Roadmap
Costs not yet determined; the roadmap emphasizes low-cost education measures first, with a possible future commercial anti-displacement fund.
Air quality in east South San Francisco
Unknown — staff will scope the air quality work plan and report back.
commercial real estate
Companies could snag some serious deals on rent now that Pfizer's out, but it might mean less tax money for the city in the short term.
city manager retirement
While no direct financial impact is mentioned, a new manager could mean new budget priorities.
garbage rates
Your wallet's going to feel it a little more each month when you pay your garbage bill.
city manager hiring
This hire could mean big changes for city spending and how your tax dollars are used.
