67% Center coverage: 3 sources

AUSTIN (KXAN) -- As the city of Austin looks to release its proposed budget next week, how much money will be dedicated to homelessness? That could be a focal point of budget conversations after Austin City Council voted to make homelessness a top spending priority earlier this year. “We’re positioning our investments in the homelessness response system as one of the city of Austin’s top funding priorities, which is critical. And you’ve heard it…See the Story

Push For Homeless Shelters, Services In Every SF District Runs Into Politics

Rejected six years ago, a City Hall effort to make each San Francisco district host its share of homeless shelters and services is back. This time around, it has gained more traction. Yet the latest proposal has also created the first notable disagreement between Mayor Daniel Lurie and some of his board allies. Introduced in April, the new geographic equity law seeks to ease overconcentration of services in a few neighborhoods such as the Tender…San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

Gay SF’s Heart Is In the Castro. The City Wants Thousands More Homes There Too

Behind the plywood that covers the entrance of the historic Castro Theatre, a major renovation is underway. Berkeley-based Another Planet Entertainment, now the venue’s operator, has posted a notice asking the neighborhood’s forbearance (“please pardon our dust and noise”) and listing all the coming rewards: “much-needed” mural and plaster restoration, state-of-the-art heating and cooling, added bathroom capacity, and more. Their message is obvi…San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

SFUSD Has Had A Crazy Year. Here’s What to Expect After Summer Break

Summer break for the San Francisco Unified School District starts in two weeks. A break sounds nice. The past year has been a whirlwind of controversies, changes, and uncertainty for everyone involved with SF’s public schools. For example, after months of layoff talk, the district announced on May 16 it would spare the jobs of 151 counselors and teachers’ aides — yet another rollercoaster moment. You’re forgiven if you haven’t kept pace. So bef…San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

Vote for Muni? Transit Backers Say Struggling SFMTA Needs 2026 Election Win

San Francisco’s transit agency is facing a $320 million deficit a year from now. That’s more than 20 percent of its current budget, and it’s set off a frenzied effort to both cut costs and find new revenue. The federal government sent emergency funding during the pandemic, but it’s running out. Prospects of help from the Trump White House are slim to none. The rest of the city’s budget is also hemorrhaging red ink, including the San Francisco Mu…San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

SF’s Downtown Problems Include Big Shift To Cars, Away From Transit

San Francisco’s transit agency is making controversial budget cuts and scrambling for revenue, all to close a $320 million deficit. A new study sheds light on the role the pandemic and stalled recovery have played, and how much the city has regressed in its efforts to steer people away from cars. Between 2019 and 2023, cars took a big share of downtown trips away from transit, bikes, and walking. “There has been a complete change in behavior in …San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

Parkmerced Is A Giant Housing Fail. Can SF Avoid the Next One?

In 2011, San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors approved one of the city’s most ambitious housing plans, an overhaul of the 1940s-era Parkmerced, a small neighborhood next to San Francisco State University. The redevelopment was supposed to yield about 5,700 new homes and replace 1,500 more from Parkmerced’s aging stock, a remarkable bounty given how the city’s west side had for decades resisted new development. Fourteen years later – nothing. In …San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

SFUSD’s New Boss Got a 6-Month ‘Honeymoon.’ Now Deep Budget Cuts Are Coming

Back in February, Maria Su, the newly minted head of the troubled San Francisco Unified School District, stood before an audience of business, nonprofit, and local government leaders and offered assurances about the future of the city’s public schools. “We will have to make really painful cuts,” Su said. “But once we get through that, we will have a school district that will have stability and predictability.”A few months before that speech, Su …San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article
