San Francisco Politics and Urbanism Daily

Les mer San Francisco Politics and Urbanism Daily

San Francisco Politics and Urbanism Daily is your daily read on San Francisco civic reform — coverage of City Hall, the Board of Supervisors, Muni, SFUSD, SFPD, and the housing fight from a build-more-housing, accountability-first frame. Episodes track the mayor and the Board on housing abundance, the fentanyl and street-conditions response in the Tenderloin and Mission, Muni reliability and downtown recovery, permit reform that affects small-business owners and infill developers, and the prosecutorial calls shaping public safety. We cover supervisor votes, SFUSD board decisions, and BART and regional moves that don't otherwise make the daily news cycle. For San Franciscans tracking SF politics, Muni, SFPD, schools, downtown recovery, and urbanism, the show is short, evidence-led, and unapologetic about preferring outcomes over ideology.
