The Agenda

Delivery drones in the skies above SF?

Plus: A rally to stop school closures. That's The Agenda for Dec. 14-21.
City Hall

Under Lurie, affordability is in free fall

Rents are up. Muni fares are up. Evictions are up. Will this be the next big issue in San Francisco, as it was in New York?
City Hall

Lurie’s Charter Reform working group is not remotely a ‘broad group of experts’

Housing

The creepy sleeping pods might not even be legal

Apartment bidding wars are a problem, too—and the city can put an end to it
Immigration

SF fires immigrant advocate—and activists are confused and angry

'It's just weird.' Why was Richard Whipple fired from the Office of Civic Engagement and Immigrant Affairs?
The Agenda

Chan stands up to her male colleagues—and suddenly they’re acting all offended

Plus: An attack on formula retail bans, and a way to save Muni—with fair and progressive taxes. That's The Agenda for Dec. 7-14
Housing

The city relied on a three-year-old EIR for a different project; will that survive a court challenge?
Homelessness

Housing

To say this creates affordable housing is a wild fantasy. Yet Lurie's allies all lined up against tenants and vulnerable communities.
