(a) The Task Force shall assist the Board of Supervisors, the Mayor, and all City departments in achieving two primary goals: (1) that all SRO hotels in the City are safe, accessible, and stable places to reside, and (2) that affordable, healthy, and appropriate housing options are available in the City so that extremely low-income families do not have to raise their children in SRO hotels. To achieve those goals, the Task Force shall identify and provide training and consultation; develop and recommend legislation, regulations, policies, and/or procedures; monitor compliance with relevant laws, regulations, policies, and/or procedures; recommend strategies to move families out of SROs and into permanent housing; advocate goals for assuring housing is affordable to extremely low income families; and advocate strategies to prevent families from losing their housing.
(b) All City departments, commissions, boards, and agencies shall cooperate with the Task Force in conducting its business.
