The San Francisco Board of Supervisors approved an ordinance to amend the Public Works Code, streamlining the approval process for the commemorative designation of public rights-of-way and the installation of historical street plaques. This ordinance clarifies the requirements and procedures for honoring significant sites, events, and persons. A key change is the elimination of the requirement for the Department of Public Works to hold a public hearing for each commemorative plaque application. The amendment is part of the city's larger 'PermitSF' initiative, aimed at reforming permitting processes to be more efficient and transparent.
