"REP-SF strongly opposes Mayor Lurie's upzoning plan, which does not serve families, will make rent more expensive, will increase the displacement of tenants and small businesses, and will make it impossible for San Francisco to develop the affordable housing we desperately need. We are running out of time and must act now to change course. We urge the Planning Commission to say no to the Mayor's displacement plan, and instead invest in a real community plan to refocus on affordability and real opportunities for families, seniors, and working people,"
"The upzoning plan threatens tenants and small businesses in ways that disregard decades of community-based policy making that has built a resilient city through a network of strong neighborhoods. Instead, the upzoning provides developers of expensive, market-rate condos with extraordinary tools and incentives - giveaways for them to use for profit and speculation - while tenants and small businesses suffer and are displaced,"
Mayor Daniel Lurie will hold a rally on the steps of City Hall at 11:15 Thursday to promote a zoning bill that would radically transform San Francisco. Opponents of the bill will also be present. The Race and Equity in All Planning Coalition is organizing a rally with housing activists, small business people, and community leaders, and has sent a letter to the Planning Commission. REP-SF opposes the upzoning plan, stating it will not serve families, will raise rents, will increase displacement of tenants and small businesses, and will hinder development of affordable housing. REP-SF urges the Planning Commission to reject the upzoning and invest in community-centered affordability and opportunities for families, seniors, and working people, and warns the plan grants developers incentives that encourage profit and speculation while displacing residents and businesses.
