The San Francisco Planning Commission voted 4-2 to approve an industrial maintenance facility for the private San Francisco Golf Club, despite strong opposition from local residents and parents. Concerns were raised over potential fire hazards from lithium-ion batteries and construction debris impacting preschool children’s health. Although the club argued there were no alternative sites for the facility, critics emphasized the need for safety over convenience for affluent club members. Commission members expressed their inability to assure the safety of children in the vicinity, leading to a contentious debate on city priorities.
The safety of our children is more important than the pleasure of billionaires.
The members don't want this to be an eyesore for the golfers.
