'Getting out of hand': Legislator blasts California Coastal Commission on housing trib.al/DXl1Pm0
“The reality is that SF’s politics — progressive and moderate alike — are exceptionally toxic. The way our political system functions, and the cronyism embedded within it, allows abusive people to fail up without consequence.” Great piece by @nadiarahmansf sfchronicle.com/opinion/openfo…
As the Chinese-owned social media giant TikTok again faces a ban or forced sale from President Biden and Congress, former SF DA and Police Commissioner Suzy Loftus is helping lead the company’s counterattack. sfstandard.com/2024/04/25/suz…
23-story, 200-unit state density bonus project proposed for Duboce Triangle, SF. Combined with a 15-story affordable building across the street, this could be the start of a new hi-rise cluster in one of SF's most transit-accessible neighborhoods. sfyimby.com/2024/04/23-sto…
Less than 1,400 units of housing were permitted in the San Francisco metro area last quarter, the lowest amount since Q1 2012. Total disaster For context, metro Austin permitted 8,400 units and metro DC permitted 5,600 over the same time period. Even metro Omaha permitted 1,900.
A number of interesting nuggets I liked from @ZLiscow's new paper proposing a permitting reform "Green Bargain," which I highly suggest you read. 1/n

40 years ago, April 14 1984, Processed World, a radical magazine written by white-collar workers in San Francisco, “toured” Silicon Valley in a blue bus. The tour called attention to the strong ties between the South Bay’s tech industry and the military-industrial establishment

Great. But you don't need legislation to address the fact that the infamous $1.7M price tag for the Noe Valley shitter was *57% soft costs* including hundreds of thousands of dollars for DPW managers overseeing a rote and rudimentary build. missionlocal.org/2022/10/san-fr…

I am increasingly of the opinion that the environmentalist movement's opposition to modernizing environmental laws for climate change and the housing crisis is an existential issue for Californians. This week I am extremely worried this problem can't be solved. 🧵

Based on my observation, @MarkFarrellSF appears to be the top choice for many westside moderate Chinese. Why? He knows it's important to highlight his strong image as a family man, tough stance on cracking down on crime, and elite background in finance, legal & political career.
While Mayor @LondonBreed is in China, mayoral candidate and former interim Mayor @MarkFarrellSF made a major move to boost his support within the local Chinese community. He announced a long list of Chinese American supporters & hired an Asian community campaign director.
