HVNA Letter of Reco Place for All April 2021 April 16, 2021 Supervisors Matt Haney, Ahsha Safai, Gordon Mar, Finance Committee Board of Supervisors 1 Dr. Carlton B. Goodlett Place, City Hall, Room 244 San Francisco, CA 94102-4689 Re: File #201187 Letter of Recommendation for A Place for All Dear Supervisors Haney, Safai and Mar, The Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association (HVNA) wishes to express our support for A Place For All. This legislation sponsored by Supervisor Mandelman provides a path towards ending street sleeping by proposing a City policy to provide shelter to all who wish to accept it, and additionally requiring the City to create sucient interim o-street shelter placements. In Hayes Valley, we supported Safe Sleeping sites. We saw a rise in street sleeping, which grew exponentially during the early part of the pandemic, with large encampments blocking sidewalks and creating unsafe and unsanitary conditions both for the people in the encampments and immediate neighbors. We circulated a petition in support of the creation of Safe Sleeping Site at 33 Gough Street, as well as other potential locations, and found there was widespread support of this eort. We understand that more than 70% of San Francisco voters have identied homelessness and street conditions as the top issue for the City to address. While the solution for homelessness is housing, the long waiting list leaves people with few options while awaiting a placement. Safe sleeping sites are a proven, scalable and sustainable model. A Place for All will help close the gap in shelter availability by oering a safe, managed site. We need this critical rst step from homelessness to housing. The Board of the Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association wishes to add its voice in support of A Place for All. Sincerely, Jennifer Laska Barbara Early President Corresponding Secretary Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association cc: Supervisors Dean Preston, Aaron Peskin, Connie Chan, Rafael Mandelman, Myrna Melgar, Hillary Ronen, Shamann Walton Victor Young, Kyle Smealie, DeAnthony Jones Rescue SF HVNA Board 400 Grove Street, Suite #3, San Francisco, CA 94102 www.hayesvalleysf.org.

This message is from outside the City email system. Do not open links or attachments from untrusted sources. San Francisco Historic Preservation Commission: Greetings Fellow Preservationists: It is extremely important to provide the public a proper introduction of the history of India Basin by using the SHIPWRIGHT’S COTTAGE, 900 Innes, as a Visitor Center with its Main Floor outfitted as a History Room with Photos and Diagrams telling the story of the wooden boat building industry and the importance of the scow schooner in the India Basin history. The use of a proposed cafe on the main floor is inappropriate! The proposed reconfiguring of the landscaping is also inappropriate for an historic cottage. Please use “common sense” in your deliberations. We do not have enough representation of San Francisco’s outstanding history in the India Basin Area.

Do not open links or attachments from untrusted sources. Dear Commissioners, I strongly oppose the conditional use proposal for 2017-001270CUA (D. VU: (415) 575- 9120) 3140-3150. 2017-001270VAR (D. VU: (415) 575-9120) 3140-3150 16TH STREET – north side between Albion and Valencia Streets – Lot 018 in Assessor’s Block 3555 (District 8). It is not acceptable to approve another proposal to displace a community-supporting small business site with a massive entertainment venue designed to service a wealthy, transient, youthful, monoculture. Especially because a Subaru dealer is interested in using the space as a repair shop, it is essential that you reject the proposal to convert a space that should continue to provide much-needed working-class jobs to our city, at a property that is scale-appropriate to the community. You must reject any attempts to displace this automotive repair space with a 3-story entertainment space, As our representatives, you must support opportunities that would support and create working-class jobs, promote community supportive businesses, and make it possible for artists and our displaced communities of color to return to our city, and begin to restore our endangered communities.

SFMTA reduced service on many transit lines during the shelter-in-place order, however, regular vital routes such as the F, 6, 18, 21, 23, 31, 35, 36, 52, and 53 have remained completely out of service. SFMTA suspended their light rail system, which has provided limited bus substitutions for light rail routes including N Judah, L/K Taraval Ingleside, and M Oceanview. While some of these lines served student commuters, they were relied upon by many seniors and other individuals who need to access essential services such as child care, work, grocery store, and medical appointments. SFMTA launched the Essential Trip Card (ETC) program for seniors in order to access subsided taxi rides, but it is limited and is still cost-prohibitive for residents living on fixed incomes. “Frankly – The SFMTA needs to recognize that reinstating these lines is an equity issue. Transit is an essential service and we cannot possibly best serve all neighborhoods in San Francisco if we are going to purely look at ridership levels,” said the Chair of the Land Use and Transportation Committee, Supervisor Myrna Melgar.
