The money would help the city prepare for earthquakes and rising seas. It would prevent flooding in the Tubes and fix potholes. It would also keep streets safe and support fire and medical response. It would protect the shoreline and Bay from pollution. The measure requires oversight and public disclosures. A NO vote means the city cannot sell these bonds.
