Under Coach Rush’s leadership, the Rams amassed an astonishing record: 326 wins, 92 losses, and 4 ties. From 1990 to 2014, the team boasted the highest winning percentage in the nation, securing seven national championships, seven state championships, 14 Northern California championships and 22 conference titles.
The UGH is not a park, and even if the measure passes, it will not be a park. A park, at this point, is nothing more than a pipe dream.
Residents of the Sunset and Richmond districts depend on City College of San Francisco for its wide range of courses, programs and the free enrollment provided by the Free City College initiative. However, this vital resource is at risk due to proposed cuts by the City, which could disrupt the educational plans of many.
With the November general election fast approaching, is this shift toward a battle with the state-imposed mandate to plan for 82,000 new units by 2032 a constructive effort with other priorities looming?
I don’t know at present whether we can apply that axiom to any of the five major candidates for mayor, but we’ve got irritating practitioners of guile and political pap at City Hall, and I don’t mean Assessor Joaquin Torres, District Attorney Brooke Jenkins – who is a breath of fresh prosecutorial air of the criminal courthouse, 850 Bryant St. – Director John Arntz of the Election Department, Board of Supervisor’s Clerk Angela Cavallo, Controller Greg Wagner and Budget Analyst Fred Broussard, a worthy successor to Harvey M. Rose who has retired but still attends every Board of Supervisors meeting.
I am a candidate for the SFUSD Board of Education
When I started my campaign three months ago, I was told that the school board race is down ballot and not many people will care or take the time to vote. I believe that this would be a mistake; the school board election this November is critical, and we cannot afford to get it wrong.
The proposal to transform The Great Highway into a permanent oceanfront park is not just an idea – it’s a vision for a brighter, more connected future for our City.
Honoré de Balzac aptly proclaimed in 1901 in “The Works of Honoré de Balzac”: “And thus bureaucracy, the giant power wielded by pygmies, came into the world.” And, with approximately 38,000 employees, do we have such preponderant dynasticism at City Hall and elsewhere in our 49 square miles, plus SFO and other lands and buildings which teem with such regimens.
Contrary to CCSF’s Trustee Alan Wong’s commentary, published on the RichmondSunsetNews.com website on May 17, CCSF is far from “stable.” His failure to reveal CCSF was denied full accreditation by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC), is troubling and misleading.
There are no easy answers for the challenges we face – just hard decisions. But here’s the good news: City College is making the hard choices we need, and after years of turmoil at City College, we’re turning the page to a better and more stable future.
On May 9, we posted a commentary from a reader titled “The (Not so) Subtle Takeover of Private Property by the City.”
I heard from District 4 Supervisor Joel Engardio who said some of the claims were not true. Here is Supervisor Engardio’s comment that can be found at the end of the original commentary.
We need to shift our focus from reactive measures, such as increased policing, to proactive solutions that address the root causes of traffic violence. By redesigning our streets, we can create an environment where safety is built into the infrastructure, rather than relying solely on individual behavior.
It has been 10 years since the passage of the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act. How could voters not have been in favor of it back then? Well, we can now blame the deceptive ballot measure name in hindsight, as it has ultimately led to upheaval in California’s criminal justice system.
Once you build an ADU, your SFR is now a two-family dwelling or “multiunit” property. All the ADUs are now legal units. Not only will your property be re-appraised at a significant increase in value with an increase in property tax, but the Rent Board will now resume operation of your new unit(s) as well as your old unit.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt, while still New York state’s governor in 1932, warned: “Any government, like any family, can for a year spend a little more than it earns. But you and I know that a continuation of that habit means the poorhouse.”
