After plans for a 50-story building to replace the Sloat Garden Center collapsed under pressure from locals and the City, the developer is back with plans for a building about half that size.
This July, after first winning approval from the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), the SF Board of Supervisors, by a 9-to-2 majority, approved a plan by Mayor Daniel Lurie that makes it illegal to park recreational vehicles (RVs) and other oversized vehicles on city streets for more than two hours. Violators are subject to tickets, fines and towing charges.
As construction continues at 2550 Irving St., questions and demands remain about the cleanup and City and state response to the toxic plume.
The latest development in the City’s ongoing struggle to deal with people living in recreational vehicles (RVs) is the San Francisco Board of Supervisors’ rejection of Mayor London Breed’s revived policy for towing these rolling shelters away.
San Francisco will have to build about 25% more housing, and dedicate that strictly for blue-collar and skilled workers, to meet the demands of both current and future job requirements, according to a recent report.
