Office of the Mayor

Mayor Gavin Newsom signed legislation creating an innovative new program to finance energy-efficiency, renewable energy, water conservation and other environmental improvements to San Francisco residential and commercial buildings. The new “green financing” program would allow home and building owners to fund environmental improvements, with the financing attached to the property and paid back through a special line item on the property tax bill over the life of the improvements.
