Local Propositions

Proposition A is an ordinance put on the ballot by Mayor London Breed and the Board of Supervisors that would allow the City to borrow up to $600 million by issuing general obligation bonds. The City would use this money to build, buy and rehabilitate affordable housing in the City.

Please review the details starting on page 44 of the Voter Guide.

SUPPORT - Proposition D: Traffic Congestion Mitigation Tax

Starting Jan. 1, 2020, Proposition D would impose a business tax on commercial rideshare companies for fares generated by rides that start in San Francisco as follows: 
  • 1.5% on a shared-ride fare; and
