# City of South San Francisco Special City Council Meeting 11/10/2026

The City of South San Francisco City Council’s special meeting on November 10, 2026, included several procurement and funding actions. The Council approved a service-agreement extension with Flock Safety for the city’s fixed-mount automated license plate reader program: $120,000 for 40 cameras, continuing through August 19, 2027, while the city prepares an RFP and considers a future vendor. The vote was 4–1. Contract terms discussed included city ownership of the data, a prohibition on using it for AI or machine learning, restrictions on third-party disclosure, and increased liability provisions. The Council also approved a $610,000 budget amendment for a childcare expansion pilot: $100,000 for consulting services with the Child Care Coordinating Council of San Mateo County (4Cs), $10,000 contingency, and $500,000 in provider grant awards. Separately, it approved a $50,000, one-year professional-services contract with the South San Francisco Chamber of Commerce for enhanced economic-development support, with authority for the city manager to extend it six months at no additional cost.

Council comments also noted nearly $4.4 million in regional funding awarded to the city for transportation and infrastructure efforts, including Chestnut Avenue multimodal safety and access improvements (a roughly $3.1 million project, with $2.67 million from a One Bay Area grant), Orange Avenue Complete Streets planning and design, and the Centennial Trail safety and rehabilitation program. The Council considered renewal of the city’s Pro Housing designation, which can improve competitiveness for state housing funds; a prior designation-related incentive grant was approximately $890,000. The meeting also included emergency-preparedness announcements and community proclamations, with no additional procurement actions identified in those portions.
