Ordinance calling and providing for a special election to be held in the City and County of San
Francisco on Tuesday, November 8, 2011, for the purpose of submitting to the voters a proposition to
incur the following bonded debt of the City and County: $248,000,000 to finance the repaving and
reconstruction of roads, the rehabilitation and seismic improvement of street structures, the
replacement of sidewalks, the installation and renovation of curb ramps, the redesign of streetscapes
to include pedestrian and bicycle safety improvements, and the construction, rehabilitation and
renovation of traffic infrastructure and related costs necessary or convenient for the foregoing
purposes; authorizing landlords to pass-through 50% of the resulting property tax increase to
residential tenants in accordance with Chapter 37 of the San Francisco Administrative Code; finding

against the proposition; fixing the maximum rate of interest on such bonds and providing for the levy
and collection of taxes to pay both principal and interest; prescribing notice to be given of such
election; finding that the proposed bond is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA); finding that the proposed bond is in conformity with the priority policies of Planning Code
Section 101.1(b) and with the General Plan consistency requirement of Charter Section 4.105 and
Administrative Code Section 2A.53; consolidating the special election with the general election;
establishing the election precincts, voting places, and officers for the election; waiving the word
