Richmond Review/Sunset Beacon

More than 100 people filled the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) board meeting this evening after rallying outside district headquarters, demanding a public process before any decision is made about 741 30th Ave., the Outer Richmond property that has housed The Richmond Neighborhood Center since 1980. The crowd gathered days after the district told the center it would release a request for proposals (RFP) to gauge developer interest in the site.

Although the June special election feels like it just happened, District 4 voters will return to the polls this November to elect a supervisor for a full four-year term. I’ve been surprised by how many neighbors didn’t know there was another election.

There were a total of 61 candidates for California governor on your June 2 primary election ballot. In addition, there were seven write-in candidates that you may or may not have heard about. How did you vote? Did you support a candidate you really liked because of the positions he or she took on issues? Was your vote influenced by whether or not your candidate had a chance of winning? Did you make your choice based on which candidate is the most popular in opinion polls? Do you rely on political advice from friends and neighbors? Or, are you influenced by the mountain of political literature that arrives in your mailbox and advertisements that flood all types of media?

From the Editor: Reflections Ahead of the Fall Season

By San Francisco Richmond ReView on August 18, 2026 • ( 1 Comment )

It’s hard to believe that it’s already August. As we inch closer to the fall season, there is a lot of activity happening in the Sunset District. Students will soon return to classrooms, thousands of tourists will visit our neighborhoods as they attend concerts in Golden Gate Park – and we all find ourselves on the precipice of a divisive election cycle.

Everything Nice: Sit, Sip and Slow Down at Jandii

By Sunset Beacon on August 18, 2026 • ( 1 Comment )

The fog reaches Taraval Street early and stays late. This far west, where the L-Taraval train slides toward the ocean and the marine layer settles over the Avenues, the Parkside keeps a tempo all its own, a step slower than the rest of the City. Since June, a bright, two-story cafe at 1100 Taraval St. has leaned all the way into that slower pace. Jandii is built around a single idea, that the time between meals matters as much as the meals themselves.
