     hasf 2017 posterThe Haight Ashbury Street Fair will take place on Sunday, June 11, from 11 am to 5:30 pm, on Haight Street between Masonic and Stanyan, with a Children’s Alley on Belvedere between Haight and Waller.

     The Haight Ashbury Street Fair is dedicated to celebrating the cultural history and diversity of one of San Francisco’s most internationally celebrated neighborhoods. The Street Fair was developed in response to the re-birth of the economic and residential spirit of the community in the mid 1970’s. With the assistance of Harvey Milk, the first District 5 Supervisor, a group of neighborhood merchants, activists, and residents developed the Haight Ashbury Street Fair organization, and sponsored the first Haight Ashbury Street Fair on April 30, 1978.

 On April 27, the Planning Commission considered competing proposals regarding affordable housing, one from Supervisors Kim and Peskin (Proposal A) and another from Supervisors Safai, Breed and Tang (Proposal B). Either proposal would make significant changes to the affordable housing requirements passed overwhelmingly (67.9% of the vote) in June, 2016 as Proposition C.

Proposition C did not change the requirement that developers of projects of 10 or more units must either a) pay an affordable housing fee, b) build affordable housing on the project site, or c) build affordable units offsite, but it did change the number of affordable units or amount of the fee.

Founded by Doniece Sandoval, Lava Mae launched its mobile hygiene service in June of 2014 and has since provided more than 14,000 showers to 2,400 people moving through homelessness, inspired replication of its hygiene services, and dramatically raised awareness about the lack of access to showers and basic hygiene across the U.S. and around the globe.

Lava Mae is undergoing some upgrades and will be returning to the neighborhood in the near future. We may get an update at the April meeting; if not, then it will be presented in May.
