Pricey housing costs are not only pushing teachers out of public schools in San Francisco but also giving faculty a reason to leave City College of San Francisco, a new survey has found.

We got it! Pedestrian Safety for Sunnyside Streets

The votes are in from the recent round of District 7 Participatory Budgeting — and the Sunnyside pedestrian safety proposal got a fantastic number of notes — 892 — and came second in its category. As far as we know at this point, that secures the $120,000 needed to make those improvements happen. A big thank-you to all those who took the time to vote.

This is the package of improvements that SNA helped draft, working with Sunnyside Elementary School PTA, Friends of Monterey Boulevard, and other local residents. Congratulations are due all around! Details on what we asked for below.
