The Mayor's Office submitted an ordinance to appropriate $5,769,288 from the Treasure Island IRFD Tax Increment Revenue Bonds and accumulated interest to fund affordable housing projects.
The Budget and Finance Committee recommended the ordinance for approval, which included the appropriation of funds for the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development.

The Board of Supervisors finally passed the ordinance, officially appropriating the funds to the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development.
