Virtual SF Budget Deep Dive with ConnectedSF: Can we address the shortfall?
Since 2017 the SF city budget has doubled. As of right now San Francisco has a $14.5B budget for a city/county of 800,000 people.
San Francisco leaders project am $800M shortfall for FYE June 2025. This is based upon the most optimistic scenarios. A more realistic analysis puts the coming year's shortfall at over $1B.
Mayor Breed will release her budget this week and will start a period of negotiations with the Board of Supervisors.
San Franciscans and taxpayers tend to be forgotten by politicians – but not by ConnectedSF. We are here to educate you on the inner-workings of the budget and analyze what the outcomes will be. A finance expert will dig in on the budget and help make sense of it, when it matters: BEFORE it is finalized. ConnectedSF exists to provide you information to make your views known before it is "reported on" and too late to have a say.
Sunset/Parkside District 4 Town Hall - Up-zoning Plans
The Sunset/Parkside District 4, along with many neighborhoods in western San Francisco, face significant upzoning mandated by the State and the City, aiming to raise building height throughout the area. These significantly taller structures won't address affordable housing but will instead lead to luxury high-rises, tenant and small business displacement, and neighborhood gentrification, profoundly impacting our neighborhood and quality of life for all residents.
