The most notable decisions

Where this comes from

This page carries the 12 most notable decisions of each decade, 14 of the 17 on record; the rest are on its streets. Every line is written from one item in the minutes of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, the city council, and links to the page it was printed on at the Internet Archive or in the Clerk's own files. Many of the Board's decisions name no street at all, and only the ones that do can be placed here. How the record was read · The whole city
