SFEC Form 3610b - City Officers Behested Payment - Payors

San Francisco Campaign and Governmental Conduct Code section 3.610 requires City elective officers and members of certain boards and commissions to file behested payment reports (Form SFEC-3610(b)) with the Ethics Commission.

Effective September 24, 2020, Mayoral Executive Directive 20-02 requires Department Heads to file behested payment Form SFEC-3610(b) and to comply with the City’s behested payment requirements that apply to City elected officials and members of boards and commissions that are contained in Article III, Chapter 6 of the Campaign and Governmental Conduct Code. 

An officer must file Form SFEC-3610(b) any time a behested payment of $1,000 or more is made at his or her behest by an interested party. An “interested party” is a person who is a party, participant or agent of a party or participant to certain types of proceedings before the official in question. Those proceedings are limited to administrative enforcement proceedings and proceedings regarding permits, licenses, or other entitlements for use. A party to such a proceeding is someone who files an application for a license, permit, or entitlement for use or is the subject of the administrative enforcement. A participant in such a proceeding is someone who is not a party to the proceeding but who actively supports or opposes a particular decision in the proceeding and has a financial interest in the decision. An agent is someone who represents a party or a participant in such a proceeding.

The filing deadline for Form SFEC-3610(b) depends on the circumstances under which the behested payment was made.

If the behested payment was made while the proceeding involving the interested party is pending before the official, then the form must be filed within thirty days of the payment being made. If there is a series of behested payments, the form is due within 30 days of the payment that makes the total $1,000 or more.

If the behested payment was made within six months following the date on which a final decision was made in the proceeding involving the interested party, then the form must be filed within thirty days of the payment. If there is a series of behested payments, the form is due within 30 days of the payment that makes the total $1,000 or more.

Finally, if the behested payment was made in the 12 months prior to the commencement of the proceeding involving the interested party, the form is due within 30 days of the date the official knew or should have known that the source of the behested payment became an interested party.

Each row in this dataset represents information about payors reported in the "Payors Information" sub-table of a Form SFEC-3610(b) filed with the Ethics Commission. The parent filing and form data is available in a separate dataset: "SFEC Form 3610b - City Officer Behested Payment - Filings" at https://data.sfgov.org/City-Management-and-Ethics/SFEC-Form-3610b-City-Officer-Behested-Payment-Fili/7vmk-cq9e.

SFEC Form 3620 - Donors of Behested Payments Report - Payees

On January 1, 2019, new local laws went into effect that established new requirements for behested payment reports. If behested payments are made at a City officer’s behest, the donors and recipients of such payments may be required to file public disclosures regarding the payments.

A donor must file Form SFEC-3620 if he or she makes a behested payment, or series of behested payments in a single calendar year of $10,000 or more at the behest of an officer. The donor only needs to make this disclosure if the donor is an “interested party” in a proceeding involving the officer that solicited the payment(s).

If a donor has previously filed a Form SFEC-3.620 and during the same calendar year, subsequently makes an additional behested payment at the behest of the same officer, the donor must file an additional For SFEC-3.620 only if the donor has become involved in additional proceedings or made additional contacts that were not disclosed pursuant to section 3.620(a)(1)-(3) on the initial Form SFEC-3.620.

Each row on this table represents a payee listed on a subtable of a Form 3620 filed with the Ethics Commission. The parent dataset called "SFEC Form 3620 - Donors of Behested Payments Report - Filings" can be access at the following URL: "https://data.sfgov.org/City-Management-and-Ethics/SFEC-Form-3620-Donors-of-Behested-Payments-Report-/2m4y-3tcg".

Supervisor Districts (2012)

<strong>A. SUMMARY</strong>
This dataset contains San Francisco Board of Supervisor district boundaries approved by the <u><a href="https://www.sfgov.org/ccsfgsa/2010-census-redistricting-task-force">San Francisco Redistricting Task Force</a></u> in 2012 following redistricting based on the 2010 Decennial Census. 

<strong>B. HOW THE DATASET IS CREATED</strong>
The dataset was created from the final map submitted by the San Francisco Redistricting Task Force. Boundaries in this map were decided using data from the 2010 Census on the number of people living in each census block in the City and County. 

These map boundaries were trimmed to align with the city and county's physical boundaries for greater usability. This trimming mainly consisted of excluding the water around the City and County from the boundaries.

<strong>C. UPDATE PROCESS</strong>
Supervisor District boundaries are updated every 10 years following the federal decennial census. The Supervisor District boundaries reflected in this dataset will remain unchanged. A <u><a href="https://data.sfgov.org/d/f2zs-jevy/">new dataset</a></u> was created after the 2020 Decennial Census. 

This dataset was manually updated as new members of the Board of Supervisors took office until 20 June 2019.

Once the redistricting process was completed after the 2020 Decennial Census and a new dataset was published, this dataset became static and is no longer updated.

<strong>D. HOW TO USE THIS DATASET</strong>
This dataset can be joined to other datasets for analysis and reporting at the Supervisor District level. 

If you are building an automated reporting pipeline using Socrata API access, we recommend using this dataset only if you want static boundaries that reflect Supervisor District boundaries from 2012 to 2022. If you would to pull static boundaries from 2022, see the <u><a href="https://data.sfgov.org/d/f2zs-jevy">Supervisor Districts (2022)</a></u> dataset. If you would like the boundaries to automatically update after each decennial census to reflect the most recent Supervisor District boundaries, see the <u><a href="https://data.sfgov.org/d/cqbw-m5m3">Current Supervisor Districts</a></u> dataset or the  <u><a href="https://data.sfgov.org/d/hcgx-vtsb">Current Supervisor Districts (trimmed to remove water and other non-populated City territories)</a></u> dataset.

100-Year Storm Flood Risk Zone (July 2022)

This shapefile (polygon feature) contains the boundary of the July 1, 2022 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Zone, one of the layers of the July 1, 2022 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Map. Areas within this boundary are highly likely to experience “deep and contiguous” flooding during a 100-year storm. A 100-year storm is a storm that has a 1% chance of occurring in a given year. “Deep and contiguous flooding” means flooding at least 6-inches deep spanning an area at least the size of an average City block. The 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Zone does not provide the exact depth of flooding at a given location. It also does not show areas in the City that may experience shallower and/or more localized flooding in a 100-year storm. Finally, the 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Zone shows flood risk from storm runoff only. It does not consider flood risk in San Francisco from other causes such as shoreline overtopping and overland inundation from the San Francisco Bay or Pacific Ocean.

In addition to the 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Zone, the 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Map shows: 

•	“Areas not served by the Combined Sewer and Stormwater Collection System” - showing where data for rainfall driven storm runoff is not available, and where flood risk has not been analyzed.
•	“Historical Shoreline”, “Historical Creeks”, and “Historical Waterbodies” - historical hydrology layers to illustrate the general topography of low-lying areas in the City.
The Horizontal Datum used for the GIS layers is “NAD_1983_2011_StatePlane_California_III_FIPS_0403_Ft_US.”

Notes on Usage

At a minimum, the 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Map is updated by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) on an annual basis on or before July 1 to account for any parcel review requests that remove properties from the Flood Zone. To confirm the latest version of the 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Map, check the SFPUC website at https://sfpuc.org/learning/emergency-preparedness/flood-maps to see if the map has been updated since the date of this shapefile or if there have been any parcel review determinations that identify parcels that are no longer part of the 100-Year Flood Risk Zone. The most recent official map, associated documentation, and list of parcels removed from the map from a parcel review process are available at https://sfpuc.org/learning/emergency-preparedness/flood-maps. Please be advised that the parcels listed are no longer considered to be within the 100-Year Flood Risk Zone as a result of the parcel review process. As of July 2022, this list is updated on an ongoing basis. Check the SFPUC website for any changes to this schedule.

The boundaries of this zone align with San Francisco parcel boundaries. The user should confirm proper projection or use of the webmap at https://sfpuc.org/learning/emergency-preparedness/flood-maps to properly identify parcels within the flood zone.

B) These map products were created by FEMA and you can find more information on their creation on the following page: https://www.fema.gov/flood-maps/products-tools/products

C) These maps are updated periodically in light of new information if flooding conditions change for a jurisdiction. This occurs on an as needed basis and is coordinated through the 

D) In order to use this dataset it is important to know what each zone designation means. You can find these designations below -- 
Zone AE, AO, and VE (AREAS WITH HIGH FLOOD RISK (SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS;  REGULATIONS APPLY): Properties within SFHAs are subject to flooding during the 1-percent-chance flood, a flood with a 1 percent chance of occurrence in any given year (also referred to as the Base Flood or 100-year flood).

Zone D (AREA OF UNDETERMINED FLOOD RISK): In San Francisco, Zone D is an area of possible, but undefined, flood risk for waterfront piers operated by the Port of San Francisco.

Zone X Shaded or Unshaded (AREA OF LOW OR MINIMAL FLOOD RISK): "Shaded" Zone X represents areas of moderate or low flood risk – these areas are subject to inundation during a flood having a 0.2-percent-annual-chance of occurrence, or during the 1-percent-annual-chance flood with depth less than 1 foot. "Unshaded" Zone X represents areas of minimal flood risk or areas that FEMA did not study or map.
