We are voting Yes on K to transform an unreliable roadway into an unparalleled park.
Letter to the Editor: Voting Yes on Proposition K
Letter to the Editor: Kopp is Out of Touch
… as a woman, I am so repulsed by Kopp’s digging up a story from 2019 where someone was upset that Ms Harris was demanding or had high expectations of her staff. Really? Is this trope of a strong, assertive woman is so played out. Once again, here is an older, white man disparaging a woman of color.
Letter to the Editor: Making a Case for Chan’s Re-election
During her first four-year term on the Board of Supervisors, Connie Chan has made a strong, if ultimately unsuccessful, attempts to moderate attempts by wealthy, connected interests to control our public space for their benefit. In doing so, she has also stood up to two of our most egregiously highhanded city agencies.
Letter to the Editor: Harris is By Far the Lesser of Two Evils
I read Quentin Kopp’s voting recommendations for the Nov. 5 election with dismay.
Letter to the Editor: Prop. K Opens the Door to Future Development
If you believe in good government, if you believe in democracy, if you believe in the legislative process as the way for communities to address problems, you must vote no on Prop. K. What is the motivation for these five supervisors, Joel Engardio, Myrna Melgar, Dean Preston, Rafael Mandelman and Matt Dorsey, to bypass all discussion and community feedback?
Letter to the Editor: Kopp’s Satirical Voting Recommendations
I, for one, am grateful that Quentin Kopp’s wasted vote for the presidency doesn’t matter because California is securely in the hands of the Democrats.
Letter to the Editor: UGH Is Nothing Like the Embarcadero Freeway
In their letter to the Richmond Review (September 2024), Jane Lew and Heidi Moseson equate the used-to-be Embarcadero Freeway with the Upper Great Highway (UGH). To quote, “…our ocean front continues to be dominated by a four-lane highway.” You’re not making your case here.
Letter to the Editor: Opposed to Closing Lower Great Highway Sept. 21 and Oct. 19
In a move that does nothing to promote the businesses of struggling Taraval merchants and will harm homeowners and renters who live along the Lower Great Highway and 48th Avenue, Joel Engardio solicited and received approval from SFMTA to close both lanes of the Lower Great Highway between Ulloa and Santiago on Saturday, Sept. 21, and Oct. 19, for 15 hours – 9 a.m. to midnight – to hold night markets.
Letter to the Editor: The Richmond’s Picasso
I am writing this letter to call attention to a very small individual who is making a very big impact on the feeling of community in the central Richmond District. This small individual happens to be an orange cat named Picasso.
Letter to the Editor: Senior Housing at 1234 Great Highway Ill Advised
Mr. Shanks’s article makes light of what are serious matters for the future of San Francisco and may even mislead the public into thinking that this is a “done deal” when it is not. There are neighborhood and citywide renters, merchants, homeowners, taxpayers from all walks, the arts, education, construction, healthcare, and IT, organizing to bring, as it were, water to this drought of intelligent, imaginative and caring ideas.
Letter to the Editor: Keep Dogs on Leash
The parking lot is not an off-leash area. Most of the people who bring their dogs keep them on-leash until they are inside the gate. It’s the only considerate thing to do but it seems some owners have no consideration.
Letter to the Editor: Making the Case for a New Oceanfront Park
This is an important first step for the City to adapt to rising seas, but mother nature’s reclamation of that road gives us an amazing opportunity to transform our oceanfront for more people to enjoy by establishing a new, two-mile long oceanfront park from Lincoln Way to Sloat Boulevard.
Letter to the Editor: Kopp’s Column on Kamala Harris Misses Bigger Picture
He accuses Harris of multiple ethical and legal violations in her ascent to higher office. Although some of those charges might be true, he is missing the bigger picture, which is to elect a Democratic president this November and save our democracy.
Letter to the Editor: Botanical Garden Needs Attention
What will we have lost if we turn a blind eye to the neglect of SF’s world-renowned Botanical Garden in Golden Gate Park? What used to be a pristine, well-cared-for example of horticultural exquisiteness and has become a shabby, clear cut, dried up spectacle of itself.
Letter to the Editor: A Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and GG Park Story
I’d like to submit a 600-word piece harking back to the Summer of Love, “What a Time To Be Alive,” recounting an amusing vignette about Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix and the all-but-forgotten perhaps little-known origin of the Janis tree.
