Divisadero, Fulton, etc.   There was a ballot item a few years ago to raise the money but it got shot down because of a provision not to permit landlords to pass along tax raises to renters.  How about if the people who live here and drive on the streets shell out a few bucks to pay for some new pavement.  Take a drive around almost any area from Palo Alto to San Jose to see that decent pavement is not a bank breaking item for a local government.  If they can do it so can SF.  The bad pavement makes Read This Posty »

I work at SFGH on the weekends, get up at 5:00 a.m. and come home at 4:00; cars are parked bumper-to-bumper for blocks as well as the traffic along Fulton St. There is nowhere to park until 8:00 p.m., so no way to return home until then.  Bringing this to Supervisor McGoldrick's attention last year did zilch as a response, and it was ignored.  MOVE THE CONCERTS, EVENTS, ETC.
