The San Francisco Board of Supervisors will vote on Mayor Daniel Lurie's plan to shift $35 million from permanent supportive housing to create new shelter beds. This proposal alters the allocations established by Proposition C, aimed at funding various homeless services, including permanent housing. Critics, including Supervisor Jackie Fielder, oppose the plan, fearing it undermines long-term solutions for homelessness by diverting necessary funds from permanent supportive housing to temporary shelter options. The potential doubling of funds available for temporary shelters raises concerns about sustaining long-term housing stability.
Mayor Daniel Lurie's proposal to shift $35 million from permanent supportive housing towards funding 1,000 new shelter beds faces opposition due to its potential negative impact on long-term housing solutions.
Changes to Proposition C may allow nearly double the funds to be used for temporary shelters, but critics fear that reallocating money undermines the stability provided by permanent supportive housing.
