By Chrisitn Evans, HANC Vice-President

In May, three petitioners submitted a ballot measure to the Department of Elections for the November election. I was fortunate enough to be one of them. Joined by housing advocate Jacquelynne Evans and housing services provider Lauren Hall, we filed the necessary papers to start signature collection for our measure to be added to the November ballot.

Championed by the Coalition on Homelessness and other housing and homeless activists, the measure would achieve a nearly doubling of funds, an estimated $300 million annually for the prevention of homelessness, ending waits for shelter beds, bringing thousands off the streets, including care for people with severe mental illness.

The next election in San Francisco will be on June 5. There will be special elections for Mayor and for District 8 Supervisor, as well as a primary election for Federal and State offices. San Francisco and California ballot measures will also be decided

San Francisco Candidates

The special election for Mayor will determine who will be Mayor from the time the election results are certified until early January, 2020. Whoever is elected will be eligible to run for the next 4 year term in the November, 2019 election. The nomination deadline is January 9. As of the end of December, 16 candidates had filed to run for election.

By Laksh Bhasin, co-author of the SF Community Housing Act

Editor’s Note: The SF Community Housing Act (or, per the San Francisco Department of Elections, “Parcel Tax for Affordable Rental Housing Program”) is in the signature-gathering phase to qualify for the November ballot. HANC has not yet made its endorsements for November, but has given the proponents of this measure an opportunity to explain their measure both here in the Voice and at our June meeting.

The housing affordability crisis in San Francisco didn’t begin overnight: federal cuts to HUD by presidents like Reagan and Trump, coupled with trickle-down tax cuts for corporations, and an unchecked, insatiable real-estate market, have driven displacement. Development decisions are often guided by private investors looking for a return on investment, not social good.

In many ways, 2017 has been a difficult year. Our response has been to try to keep our neighborhood informed and encourage our members and neighbors to take positive action.

In January, we heard about a plan to replace 86 rent-controlled units in Kirkham Heights with a new development of 445 units in five buildings up to eight stories high and eight 3-story townhouses. We also heard from City College Trustees who were still struggling with the Accrediting Committee. These both had happy endings, as the Kirkham Heights developer withdrew its application with the Planning Commission in August, and City College has been accredited and offers free tuition.
