The San Francisco City Commission meeting on July 9, 2025, highlighted significant developments regarding the Treasure Island community, particularly focusing on construction training programs and security improvements.

A key discussion point was the ongoing commitment to providing construction training for Treasure Island residents, especially young adults. This program, which has been in place for several years, aims to equip participants with skills that lead directly to employment in the construction sector. The commission emphasized the transformative impact of this initiative, noting that many graduates are now able to support their families and even purchase homes in San Francisco and on Treasure Island. The partnership with 1 Treasure Island was praised, with commissioners expressing their dedication to continuing funding for this program.

Security on Treasure Island was another major topic of concern. Residents, including Mr. Jerry Grouse, reported improvements in security measures, which the commission is keen to maintain. Commissioners reiterated their commitment to ensuring that Treasure Island does not experience the same security issues faced in other parts of San Francisco. They encouraged residents to remain vigilant and report any concerns to help sustain a safe environment.

Additionally, the meeting addressed financial developments related to affordable housing projects on Treasure Island. The commission noted that discussions regarding financing and bond issuance for infrastructure improvements are progressing, with a recent $13 million state grant being allocated for these initiatives.

Overall, the meeting underscored the commission's ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life for Treasure Island residents through job training and improved safety measures, while also advancing critical housing projects.
