Supervisor Connie Chan’s recent letter re: Prop. A (Earthquake “Safety”) bond measure comes to the wrong conclusion. The best course for San Francisco voters, especially for those of us in neighborhoods such as the Outer Richmond, Outer Sunset, Ingleside, Crocker-Amazon, Excelsior and at least 10 other western and southern neighborhoods, is to Vote “no” on Prop. A.
Of course people need access to their garages. But this level of vigilance feels out of proportion to the harm. We’re talking about inches of space and minor, inevitable mistakes—not real threats.
District 4 voters deserve to hear from all legitimate candidates, and not just the ones who have raised the most money. An honest forum is one that lets voters decide for themselves.
My name is Jasper and I am 14 years old, born and raised San Francisco resident. I am currently a freshman at University High School. I am writing to share my proposal to change the San Francisco flag and the interesting story about it.
Mayor Lurie’s “Proponent Ballot Argument” is not just one lie, it is a statement chock-full of lies with the intention of foisting all of them on the voters in the official Voter Information Pamphlet that is mailed to every registered voter in the City and County of San Francisco.
The west side of SF requires attention to fire risk. Another bond will accomplish nothing, or worse. There are better approaches.
The San Francisco County Transportation Authority is hosting a virtual town hall to discuss the Geary/19th Avenue Subway project planning which includes the Richmond and Sunset districts.

Lurie’s father may be a rabbi, but his values do not reflect those of the Ashkenazic American Judaism with which so many of us were raised. A sincere apology is required.
Your experience of the Sunset District may have brought one particular person to your attention. CARL GUERRA was a developmentally-disabled adult who lived near 39th Avenue and Wawona Street. He had an amazing personality which enabled him to reach out to people of all ages and engage them in conversation.
Artificial turf should never have been used in the playing fields of Golden Gate Park and it should not be used in the renovation of the Crocker/Amazon playing fields. It is toxic, pollutes the environment and poses a danger to all San Franciscans. Plastic grass continually sheds microplastics and can’t be recycled or disposed of in a landfill.
I was very severely injured but a Muni bus on Oct 27, 2025.
I need to find the EMT’s and those two guys that saved my life and thank them.
But over time, I’ve seen what this space has become, and it has changed my mind. Every day, people are out there walking, biking, gathering and connecting.
The June $535 million Bond would allocate only $130 million for the EFWSS. Three prior Bonds dating to 2010 have allocated $308 million. Thus far, no significant EFWSS components exist.
Here’s who will win my vote for D4 supervisor: I will vote for the candidate with the best vision for how to continue to develop the Sunset into a family friendly neighborhood with vibrant small businesses and beautiful parks.
