Where the data comes from
- City website: https://www.sf.gov
- Agendas and meeting calendar: https://sfgov.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx
- Meeting video: https://sanfrancisco.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=10 (SFGovTV; also https://www.youtube.com/@SFGovTV, which showed no meeting videos in latest 20)
- Officials, agendas and video lists were collected from these official sources on 2026-10-22.
- Issue and meeting pages were rebuilt on 2026-10-24 from the full text of the Board of Supervisors minutes for September 29, October 6 and October 20, 2026 and committee minutes for Rules (October 19), Budget and Finance (October 21) and Public Safety and Neighborhood Services (October 22): https://sfgov.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx
Data quality notes
- Board minutes for September 29, October 6 and October 20 are marked DRAFT and may change when adopted; the committee minutes are final or unlabeled. The October 27 Board agenda had no minutes yet.
- Only the three newest Board meetings and three newest committee meetings were processed; other committees (Land Use and Transportation, Government Audit and Oversight) and earlier meetings are not yet rebuilt from minutes. Legislation introduced at each Board meeting is only partly summarized.
- Discussion times are not recorded because no transcripts exist; board videos are Granicus links with no captions.
- Public comment names are recorded only for speakers tied to a specific item.
- Calendar page lists meetings only through 10/26 so Nov 3/10/17 Board and committee meetings and Planning Commission were not available; sfbos.org redirects to archived site and sf.gov board page lacked clerk and mayor names, so those are omitted; Planning Commission not covered (separate site not fetched); SFGovTV YouTube channel latest uploads were not meeting videos, so videos are Granicus links via Legistar (video_id is Granicus clip ID1 only for the BOS 10/20 etc. shown); agenda items for some meetings not summarized.
