San Francisco supervisors on Tuesday yanked a $368 million streets bond that would have gone before voters in November after poll numbers reportedly showed little support for the measure. The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday also tabled a tax measure that was headed for the November ballot. The proposed increase to the vehicle license fee, as well as the streets bond measure, could still appear on a ballot in 2010, said Board of Supervisors President David Chiu.
