Budget & Finance Committee Advances $100M+ in Housing, Health, and Airport Deals

San Francisco's Budget & Finance Committee moved a sweeping slate of housing subsidies, behavioral health expansions, and airport concession relief through to the full Board on Jan. 7—14 items, all unanimous, totaling well over $100 million in city commitments and outside grants.

• $27.6M in Prop 1 capital grants approved for locked psychiatric beds at 887 Potrero and a dual-diagnosis treatment facility at 333 7th St.

• $44.3M city loan and $10.5M operating subsidy greenlit for 967 Mission, a 94-unit affordable senior housing project.

• SFO concessions rent relief amended and forwarded, lowering Minimum Annual Guarantees for struggling airport vendors at a cost of roughly $1.8M in airport revenue.

• $15.3M operating subsidy advanced for 78 Haight transitional-age youth supportive housing, with supervisors pressing for stronger operator accountability.

• $6.7M foundation grant accepted to overhaul Zuckerberg San Francisco General's electronic health records and staff training systems.

• Board & care contract extended to $32.6M for behavioral health beds, with auditors calling for sharper outcome metrics.

The committee amended and advanced a resolution restructuring rent terms for 18 food and beverage concessions at San Francisco International Airport, a response to persistent pandemic-era revenue losses.
