Street and park trees provide tremendous benefits to cities.
San Franciscans know we live in the most beautiful city in the world, a jewel on the edge of the Golden Gate
As Mayor of San Francisco, I will work hard to ensure that, in the event of natural or man-made disasters, San Franciscans are prepared and our City is protected
San Francisco can no longer afford to be a city divided between downtown and neighborhoods, with a downtown that becomes a ghost town when workers go home for the evening
As Mayor, I will lead city government, businesses, and community groups to support innovative projects that will make San Francisco streets and public places vibrant and healthy
As mayor of San Francisco, I will provide the vision and work hard to make San Francisco a beautiful, well-planned city with excellent housing and transportation options
San Francisco lags behind other communities in providing a vital, vibrant and ecologically sustainable urban canopy, as well as open space in the city.
These are senseless inexplicable things that are beyond the pale of imagination, ... It makes you, frankly, sick to your stomach to think you live in a society where things like this could have happened.
I am disappointed but I confess I'm not particularly surprised,
My heart is heavy, ... I respectfully disagree with the Supreme Court's decision, but I respect the court and will respect the order.
I feel we are very well prepared for a disaster ... but the reality is you can never be prepared enough. Never.
The extremes are we have over 550 people in San Francisco earning over $100,000 a year, ... Principally, that's based on the ability to generate upwards of 90 percent of their salary in overtime expenditures.
As Mayor, I will partner with community organizations, nonprofits, the business community and residents to improve San Francisco's quality of life.
A primary goal of my administration will be to expand housing opportunities in and around the downtown, with an emphasis on building walkable, fullservice neighborhoods for our growing workforce.
