On April 18, 2016, the City & County of San Francisco released Resilient San Francisco – Stronger Today, Stronger Tomorrow – a strategic vision to building a more resilient San Francisco. Resilient San Francisco was developed in partnership with the public, private, and nonprofit sectors, along with local community leaders and stakeholders.

One of the recommendations is to launch the new Office of Resilience and Recovery, which will take the lead on:

• implementing Resilient San Francisco

• directly overseeing the City’s 30-year Earthquake Safety Implementation Program

• managing the City’s Lifelines Council
