The Board of Supervisors legislates zoning and planning policy and hears defined land-use matters and appeals; the Planning Commission and other boards retain separate decision authority.

CITY COUNCIL & HOUSING DECISION FILE
Where housing power becomes a record.
This maps formal authority and public access. It does not assign the council sole responsibility for housing supply or infer motive from a vote, meeting, contribution, or lobbying registration.
Advisory and binding stages must remain labeled separately.
The Ethics Commission publishes municipal lobbyist data. Land-use restrictions and disclosure rules require matter-specific review before relating money, contact, and a vote.

STATUS IS THE HEADLINE
One matter. Every procedural turn.
A person can be connected to multiple matters. Each matter keeps its own forum, case number, allegations, findings, outcome, and appeal history.

A complaint is an allegation. A charge is an allegation in court. An audit finding is an oversight conclusion. An ethics violation is an administrative outcome. Only a guilty plea or conviction is labeled as a criminal finding—and appeals or vacatur remain visible.
