The Treasure Island Development Authority Board of Directors makes policy decisions critical to Naval Station Treasure Island, approves large contracts, and acts as the development agency and the trustee of the Tideland Trust for Treasure and Yerba Buena Islands. All seven members of the board of directors are appointed by the Mayor of San Francisco, with certain appointments approved by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. The member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors who represents Supervisorial District 6, which includes Treasure Island and Yerba Buena Island, sits as an ex-officio, non-voting member of the Board of Directors. In 2012, when all State Redevelopment Agencies/Authorities, including TIDA, were dissolved by Governor Jerry Brown, the City of San Francisco created a nonprofit 501(c)6 focused on developing affordable housing, reusing the name TIDA. On March 12, TIDA 501(c)6 final were bylaws passed.
