"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

A period of public comment on the change ends Tuesday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='small' align='right' citation='HUD Secretary Ben Carson']‘There is an affordable housing crisis in this country, and we need to make certain our scarce public resources help those who are legally entitled to it.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall, the agency estimates that 25,000 families could lose their housing across the country; the largest share of those — 37% , or 9,250— live in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Los Angeles, that translates into 11,500 people who could be left without a home — the most of any city in the country, local housing authorities say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many of these eligible family members are minors, who due to the circumstances of the families they are born into, are now at risk of becoming homeless,” Doug Guthrie, president and CEO of the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles, wrote in a letter to HUD in July. It is “inconceivable” that HUD would add to Los Angeles’ homeless population, estimated to be about 58,000 people, Guthrie added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, such “mixed-status” families get less federal housing aid because they include people who are ineligible to receive funding. Immigrants who can’t get HUD financial aid include undocumented people, as well as those with student visas and other time-limited permits, such as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals or Dreamers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='small' align='right' citation='Doug Guthrie, head of the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles']‘Many of these eligible family members are minors, who due to the circumstances of the families they are born into, are now at risk of becoming homeless.’[/pullquote]Under the proposed changes, a household would not receive assistance unless every member residing in the unit is of eligible immigration status, which would force mixed-status families to live apart or to forgo the benefits. The plan would also require local housing authorities administering aid to check the immigration status of all recipients under age 62.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By law, HUD provides financial aid only to U.S. citizens, green card holders and other legal residents, such as refugees and asylum-seekers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency said the proposed rule is meant to bring HUD into “greater alignment” with the law, and ensure that U.S. citizens and lawful residents are first in line for the benefits, which have waitlists of more than two years on average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is an affordable housing crisis in this country, and we need to make certain our scarce public resources help those who are legally entitled to it,” said HUD Secretary Ben Carson in a statement. “Given the overwhelming demand for our programs, fairness requires that we devote ourselves to legal residents who have been waiting, some for many years, for access to affordable housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Los Angeles, the cost of evicting so many public housing residents, when taking into account the process to release units and lost rental revenue while changes are implemented, could reach up to $49 million, according to Housing Authority CEO Guthrie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In May, the L.A. City Council approved a resolution officially opposing the proposal. And in June, Mayor Eric Garcetti wrote to Carson urging him to withdraw the proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11758708,news_11752622]“Its sole purpose isn’t about smart immigration policy, public safety or fiscal responsibility,” said Garcetti. “Its goal is to spark fear in immigrant households, and its effects would target U.S.-born children and their families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing advocates worry the policy change would lead eligible immigrant households to drop benefits out of fear or confusion.

While the United States is enjoying the healthiest job market in half a century, the metropolitan El Centro area has what the U.S. Labor Department says is an unemployment rate of 16.2%, the highest in the nation. By comparison, the rate for the country as a whole is 3.6%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For people like 57-year-old Graciela Panduro, who lost a job at Walmart two years ago because of poor circulation in her legs, good jobs can be hard to find. “I’m applying everywhere and they always say, ‘Leave us the application over here and we’ll call you.’ But no calls,” Panduro says. She and her adult son — also unemployed — live off the money her husband makes as a handyman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Panduro was standing inside the community center in the little town of Heber, where the county has set up a food bank. Outside, a line of people waiting to get in snakes around the parking lot.

Some of the farmworkers live here; many others cross the border from Mexico a few miles away to work every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once they become too old to work in the fields, however, few jobs are available other than retail and fast food. And even those can be hard to get, says Alba Sanchez, who works for the Imperial Valley Food Bank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have a lot of stores closing down right now,” she says. “Sears closed down. We have a lot of other stores closing at the mall that employed these families and they’re out of jobs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Imperial Valley does have middle-class residents, many of whom work in government and law enforcement. U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which patrols 71 miles of the Mexican border nearby, is a big local employer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two state prisons are also located nearby and the valley was delighted to get them, says El Centro City Council member Cheryl Viegas-Walker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When everybody else was saying, ‘Not in my backyard,’ the whole NIMBY thing, ‘Don’t dare site those prisons here,’ we were like, ‘Please. Bring them here. Bring the jobs here,’ ” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Viegas-Walker herself came to El Centro as a young woman after her husband took a job at a local law firm. At first, she was less than thrilled to live in the valley. Today, she says she has become its biggest cheerleader.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She likes the small town feel of the city, the fact that she can drive to work in six minutes. Unlike most of California, El Centro is also affordable: A nice house on a palm tree-lined street in the better part of town can be had for about $200,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Viegas-Walker, many local officials argue that the unemployment rate is lower than the Labor Department claims and is skewed by the large number of seasonal workers in the area, many of them coming from the much larger city of Mexicali, Mexico, next door.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials also say their efforts to lure new businesses have been hurt by California’s comparatively high minimum wage, which they say has driven some jobs into Arizona and even Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But no one disputes that there aren’t enough good jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s one thing to have a job. It’s another thing to have a job that pays a [good] wage and has some upward mobility, and certainly that’s where [the Imperial Valley] economy continues to fall short,” says Mike Bracken, chief economist at Development Management Group, which advises local businesses and communities on development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Viegas-Walker acknowledges that people with college degrees tend to leave El Centro for greener pastures. She knows that firsthand: Her own two grown sons now live in Oregon and New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do have a brain drain. I mean, my two sons will not return to the valley. They won’t come back,” Viegas-Walker says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of those who remain have few options for work. In the United States, the poverty rate was \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2018/demo/p60-263.html\">12.3%\u003c/a> in 2017. In El Centro, \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/elcentrocitycalifornia\">it was more than twice that\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our economy is not diversified. It’s a very narrow economy. It’s either farm or government or teaching or low-income, with a few other exceptions,” says Sara Griffen, executive director of the Imperial Valley Food Bank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few years ago, Jessica Solorio, who grew up in El Centro, noticed a growing number of homeless people gathering in a local park. She decided to cook up a meal of chicken teriyaki and rice and take it to them. It soon became a regular thing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Me and my friend fed the homeless one night, and we posted on Facebook, then we asked who was going to take the next night. And from there we’ve just been feeding the homeless every night,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today she heads Spread the Love, a drop-in center where homeless people can spend their afternoons sleeping on cots or just sitting in the air conditioning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those stopping by is Henry Lee Poston, who says he has spent much of his life in prison or on the streets. Raised in Oklahoma, he’s never gotten used to the heat in the valley. It makes being homeless that much harder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing is it’s too dang hot here,” says Poston. “I have blackouts because of the heat. And there’s nothing I can do about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Poston has been looking for work in the valley for a long time with no success.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve tried and tried and tried and tried,” he says wearily. “They keep telling me the same thing. ‘You’re not socially acceptable.’ Whatever the hell that means.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If he ever does get a job, he has one goal: To leave the valley and return home to Oklahoma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

Unlike most of California, El Centro is also affordable: A nice house on a palm tree-lined street in the better part of town can be had for about $200,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Viegas-Walker, many local officials argue that the unemployment rate is lower than the Labor Department claims and is skewed by the large number of seasonal workers in the area, many of them coming from the much larger city of Mexicali, Mexico, next door.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials also say their efforts to lure new businesses have been hurt by California’s comparatively high minimum wage, which they say has driven some jobs into Arizona and even Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But no one disputes that there aren’t enough good jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s one thing to have a job. It’s another thing to have a job that pays a [good] wage and has some upward mobility, and certainly that’s where [the Imperial Valley] economy continues to fall short,” says Mike Bracken, chief economist at Development Management Group, which advises local businesses and communities on development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Viegas-Walker acknowledges that people with college degrees tend to leave El Centro for greener pastures. She knows that firsthand: Her own two grown sons now live in Oregon and New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do have a brain drain. I mean, my two sons will not return to the valley. They won’t come back,” Viegas-Walker says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of those who remain have few options for work. In the United States, the poverty rate was \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2018/demo/p60-263.html\">12.3%\u003c/a> in 2017. In El Centro, \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/elcentrocitycalifornia\">it was more than twice that\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our economy is not diversified. It’s a very narrow economy. It’s either farm or government or teaching or low-income, with a few other exceptions,” says Sara Griffen, executive director of the Imperial Valley Food Bank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few years ago, Jessica Solorio, who grew up in El Centro, noticed a growing number of homeless people gathering in a local park. She decided to cook up a meal of chicken teriyaki and rice and take it to them. It soon became a regular thing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Me and my friend fed the homeless one night, and we posted on Facebook, then we asked who was going to take the next night. And from there we’ve just been feeding the homeless every night,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today she heads Spread the Love, a drop-in center where homeless people can spend their afternoons sleeping on cots or just sitting in the air conditioning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those stopping by is Henry Lee Poston, who says he has spent much of his life in prison or on the streets. Raised in Oklahoma, he’s never gotten used to the heat in the valley. It makes being homeless that much harder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing is it’s too dang hot here,” says Poston. “I have blackouts because of the heat. And there’s nothing I can do about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Poston has been looking for work in the valley for a long time with no success.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve tried and tried and tried and tried,” he says wearily. “They keep telling me the same thing. ‘You’re not socially acceptable.’ Whatever the hell that means.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If he ever does get a job, he has one goal: To leave the valley and return home to Oklahoma.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

That law is part of a series of gun control measures passed by voters and lawmakers in recent years.

The effort corresponds with the state's landmark police transparency law that went into effect in January and requires law enforcement to share documents of investigations into sexual assaults, lies and deadly use-of-force by officers.\u003cbr>\n\u003cem> Reporter: Annie Gilbertson, KPCC \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>New Law May Fine Cities and Counties for Not Building Enough Housing\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Legislation is expected to pass the Senate and Assembly this week allowing courts to fine cities and counties up to 600-thousand dollars per month for not building enough housing. It's connected to California’s new state budget which Governor Newsom signed last Thursday.\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Reporter: Ben Adler, Capital Public Radio\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Unaccompanied Minors with Mental Health Disabilities Not Getting Enough Treatment at Immigration Facilities\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Advocates say migrant children with disabilities held at immigration facilities throughout California are not getting the services they need.\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Reporter: Angela Corral, KQED\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>California Set to Ban Natural Hair Discrimination in the Workplace\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California is set to become the first state in the Nation to ban natural hair discrimination as State Senator Holly Mitchell's Senate Bill 188 passed both houses of the legislature and has gone to Governor Gavin Newsom's desk.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>LAPD is Using Artificial Intelligence to Battle Bacteria Infections In the Station\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The LAPD has been dealing with bacterial infections at some of its stations, and officers are worried about rats and the spread of disease from patrolling nearby homeless encampments. The department’s Skid Row station is turning to artificial intelligence to handle the concern.\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Reporter: Gabriel Cortes, KPCC\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

This is the second generation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The 1970s San Francisco Scene Blooms\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guy Clark calls it “a magical moment in history” when he first arrived in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the time of hippies — free love all over the place. And I think it was around one of the first gay parades. Men, women, children — it was almost mandatory at that time that you go to the parade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark also remembers the small-town, family feel that permeated San Francisco’s queer scene back in those days. He says Castro Street wasn’t the queer center it is now; other San Francisco neighborhoods like North Beach and Polk Street had notable queer communities, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, back in the day we used to call it 'Mecca,' ” says Clark about San Francisco. “If you really wanted to live your life fully you come to ‘Mecca’ because you could be yourself here. It was like a home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark spent his nights at local hubs like the I-Beam, a gay nightclub in Haight-Ashbury, which closed in 1994. He remembers bringing his instruments, playing with conga drummers and dancing onstage to numbers by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13854644/how-the-world-caught-up-to-sylvester\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sylvester\u003c/a>, whose No. 1 hit on Billboard’s dance music chart, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyAHULpMXKQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)\u003c/a>” set the soundtrack for local queer liberation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Sylvester became an emblem of gay pride for people in the Castro District and around the country, so did his back up singers, the \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Weather_Girls\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Weather Girls\u003c/a>, who found their own fame with their 1982 No. 1 hit, “It’s Raining Men.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5aZJBLAu1E\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That was the song of the day,” laughs Clark. “It was almost like a theme song, an anthem. People just went berserk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco and the Castro have undergone dramatic changes since Clark first started selling flowers here. Still, he insists that the area maintains some of its old charm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's still the same,” he says. “I see people from all over the world coming to San Francisco to enjoy the type of life we have here, the freedom we have here. You can’t be yourself everywhere.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Giving Away Flowers Through the AIDS Crisis \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark was selling flowers as the AIDS epidemic swept the gay community in the 1980s and '90s -- an era in which the San Francisco Department of Public Health \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfdph.org/dph/files/reports/RptsHIVAIDS/HIVAIDAnnlRpt1999.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported\u003c/a> the disease killed more than 18,000 people in the city\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark explains that the \u003ca href=\"https://www.ebar.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area Reporter\u003c/a>, the country’s longest continuously published LGBTQ newspaper, offered a resource for the San Francisco’s gay community as the disease spread through the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every week people would look through [the paper] for the obituaries,” says Clark. “It went from one inch to the whole page, and then two pages.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11758019\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11758019\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37777__M6A0599-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37777__M6A0599-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37777__M6A0599-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37777__M6A0599-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37777__M6A0599-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37777__M6A0599-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">During the AIDS epidemic, Clark gave away flowers to gay community members who were rapidly losing their loves ones to the disease. \u003ccite>(Stephanie Lister/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>He says it was common to see a familiar face at his flower stand one week, only to find their picture in an obituary a few weeks later. He also remembers men approaching him after losing a partner to AIDS, asking if he would help them arrange flowers for their funeral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“‘I don't have a lot of money, but I really want it to be beautiful,' ” he recalls them saying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I told them, ‘We'll pull out all the stops. We'll make sure your lover gets to the other side in dignity and beauty,’ ” says Clark. “I just started doing one funeral after the next after the next after the next.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark says he began giving away flowers for funerals weekly while also joining the local community in organized acts of resistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We protested. We marched. We did everything we possibly could,” he says. “And some of us survived. We were able to share the meaning of humanity. We just held hands, and hugs, and prayed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That went on for years, until the number of people dying of AIDS began to decline in 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the obituaries went back down to just a few names, it was a sigh of relief,” says Clark with a sigh himself. “We we could finally see through the clouds of AIDS. We could finally see the sun shining.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Gentrifying Castro\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark used to live just four doors down from his flower stand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Best commute in the world,” he says, pointing to a yellow building just a stone’s throw from where he still works. He remembers the avocado tree in the back, which he planted himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At that time I thought everything was written in stone, that this is the way it's going to be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Clark says that after 28 years, he received notice that he’d have to leave the apartment building during a major renovation. Though the landlord told Clark that tenants would be allowed to return to the building, Clark says he was unable to afford the hike in rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just didn't have a million dollars,” says Clark, who was homeless for a time after that. “It wasn't that I didn't have money; I couldn't find an affordable place to live in San Francisco anymore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark says he spent some time living in a property manager’s garage, but was eventually asked to leave that space as well. After losing both his dad and his home in the span of a year, Clark says he was “ready for the bridge.” Today, he credits his enduring relationships with his loyal customers for helping him recover from his depression.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I was evicted out of [my apartment] I was so bitter, I was so angry,” he says. “Finally when I realized that my home and my garage didn't define who I am, it made me stronger. It made me more resilient. I can still sell flowers. I’ve still got my permit, and it did get better. I don't have as many flowers, but I've got more customers. And it seems like it worked out for the best.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Becoming A Neighborhood Fixture\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After 38 years on the corner of 15th and Noe, Clark has become a local icon who is always willing to greet customers with blooms, bubbles and a smile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11758023\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11758023 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37781__M6A0627-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37781__M6A0627-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37781__M6A0627-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37781__M6A0627-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37781__M6A0627-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37781__M6A0627-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Clark in front of his flower stand on a sunny San Francisco morning in June 2019. \u003ccite>(Stephanie Lister/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Clark says he feels “like the uncle” and has story after story of adult customers he’s known since childhood.

And I think it was around one of the first gay parades. Men, women, children — it was almost mandatory at that time that you go to the parade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark also remembers the small-town, family feel that permeated San Francisco’s queer scene back in those days. He says Castro Street wasn’t the queer center it is now; other San Francisco neighborhoods like North Beach and Polk Street had notable queer communities, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, back in the day we used to call it 'Mecca,' ” says Clark about San Francisco. “If you really wanted to live your life fully you come to ‘Mecca’ because you could be yourself here. It was like a home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark spent his nights at local hubs like the I-Beam, a gay nightclub in Haight-Ashbury, which closed in 1994. He remembers bringing his instruments, playing with conga drummers and dancing onstage to numbers by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13854644/how-the-world-caught-up-to-sylvester\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sylvester\u003c/a>, whose No. 1 hit on Billboard’s dance music chart, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyAHULpMXKQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)\u003c/a>” set the soundtrack for local queer liberation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Sylvester became an emblem of gay pride for people in the Castro District and around the country, so did his back up singers, the \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Weather_Girls\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Weather Girls\u003c/a>, who found their own fame with their 1982 No. 1 hit, “It’s Raining Men.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/l5aZJBLAu1E'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/l5aZJBLAu1E'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\"That was the song of the day,” laughs Clark. “It was almost like a theme song, an anthem.

He also remembers men approaching him after losing a partner to AIDS, asking if he would help them arrange flowers for their funeral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“‘I don't have a lot of money, but I really want it to be beautiful,' ” he recalls them saying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I told them, ‘We'll pull out all the stops. We'll make sure your lover gets to the other side in dignity and beauty,’ ” says Clark. “I just started doing one funeral after the next after the next after the next.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark says he began giving away flowers for funerals weekly while also joining the local community in organized acts of resistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We protested. We marched. We did everything we possibly could,” he says. “And some of us survived. We were able to share the meaning of humanity. We just held hands, and hugs, and prayed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That went on for years, until the number of people dying of AIDS began to decline in 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the obituaries went back down to just a few names, it was a sigh of relief,” says Clark with a sigh himself. “We we could finally see through the clouds of AIDS. We could finally see the sun shining.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Gentrifying Castro\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark used to live just four doors down from his flower stand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Best commute in the world,” he says, pointing to a yellow building just a stone’s throw from where he still works. He remembers the avocado tree in the back, which he planted himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At that time I thought everything was written in stone, that this is the way it's going to be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Clark says that after 28 years, he received notice that he’d have to leave the apartment building during a major renovation. Though the landlord told Clark that tenants would be allowed to return to the building, Clark says he was unable to afford the hike in rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just didn't have a million dollars,” says Clark, who was homeless for a time after that. “It wasn't that I didn't have money; I couldn't find an affordable place to live in San Francisco anymore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark says he spent some time living in a property manager’s garage, but was eventually asked to leave that space as well. After losing both his dad and his home in the span of a year, Clark says he was “ready for the bridge.” Today, he credits his enduring relationships with his loyal customers for helping him recover from his depression.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I was evicted out of [my apartment] I was so bitter, I was so angry,” he says. “Finally when I realized that my home and my garage didn't define who I am, it made me stronger. It made me more resilient. I can still sell flowers. I’ve still got my permit, and it did get better. I don't have as many flowers, but I've got more customers.

And yet has proposed 2,600 beds and 550 housing units. Well, that means there are more than 7,000 people — after you get rid of the student beds — more than 7,000 people fighting for 550 housing units. Pretty clear that’s not going to work,” Simitian said.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘It’s important to make sure that it is a thoroughly reviewed project, and that any of the impacts of the projects are fully mitigated.

San Mateo County has \u003ca href=\"https://cmo.smcgov.org/blog/2019-05-06/county-san-mateo-cities-urge-santa-clara-county-help-hold-stanford-accountable\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">also sent a letter \u003c/a>to Santa Clara County Supervisors, urging them “to help hold Stanford University accountable for the anticipated impacts to housing, traffic, the environment and residents if it is allowed to expand its campus by more than 20 percent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s important to make sure that it is a thoroughly reviewed project, and that any of the impacts of the projects are fully mitigated,” he said. “It’s the largest development proposal in the history of Santa Clara County.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately though, Simitian says he expects to “get to ‘yes’,” despite what he sees as “pushback” from the largest landowner in the county as the parties enter what most consider the final stage of the approval process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you’re going to develop three and a million square feet, then you’ve got to mitigate the impacts,” said Simitian. “It’s that simple.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are those who feel Stanford is promising enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘It’s always baffling to me when the neighbors vilify Stanford.’\u003ccite>Russell Hancock, CEO of Joint Venture Silicon Valley\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Russell Hancock, a Stanford \u003ca href=\"https://publicpolicy.stanford.edu/people/russell-hancock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lecturer\u003c/a> and also president and CEO of \u003ca href=\"https://jointventure.org/russell-hancock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Joint Venture Silicon Valley\u003c/a>, said, “It’s always baffling to me when the neighbors vilify Stanford. This is a world class institution. There would be no Silicon Valley without Stanford.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added that many Stanford neighbors enjoy free use of amenities like hiking trails, gardens and museums.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We get to cheer for Stanford in the Rose Bowl, this is just an amazing community asset,” Hancock said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Why does he think there’s resistance to Stanford’s plan?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s growth related,” said Hancock. “There might be other things at play as well. There might be egos and personalities involved that go back generations. But these communities, Palo Alto and Menlo Park [in particular], are deeply concerned about growth, and their citizens are electing representatives who want to curtail all of the growth, and Stanford is a growing institution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The County of Santa Clara Planning and Development Department has been holding a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/opa/newsroom/Pages/stanforduniversitylandusepermithearings.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series of planning commission hearings\u003c/a> to review Stanford University’s General Use Permit application.

There might be egos and personalities involved that go back generations. But these communities, Palo Alto and Menlo Park [in particular], are deeply concerned about growth, and their citizens are electing representatives who want to curtail all of the growth, and Stanford is a growing institution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The County of Santa Clara Planning and Development Department has been holding a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/opa/newsroom/Pages/stanforduniversitylandusepermithearings.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series of planning commission hearings\u003c/a> to review Stanford University’s General Use Permit application.

About 20% of the units are reserved for homeless seniors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That threshold still puts the apartments out of reach for many of the neighborhood's low-income, mostly Latina seniors, many of whom subsist primarily on Social Security income of $600 to $800 per month, and say they simply don't have the savings to afford the proposed rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11756789\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11756789\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-1832x1374.jpg 1832w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-1376x1032.jpg 1376w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-1044x783.jpg 1044w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-632x474.jpg 632w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/06/RS37869_IMG_5669-qut-536x402.jpg 536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Community activist Olinda Orellana and her peers said they had looked forward to Casa Adelante, a soon-to-be-completed senior affordable housing development on Shotwell Street, until they discovered the rent prices would still be far out of their reach. \u003ccite>(Liliana Michelena/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Orellana said she and fellow seniors have for years been looking forward to the new development, and she even helped drum up support for the idea when it was first proposed.

Those subsidies, she said, never came.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For its part, MEDA, the developer, said that the city would need to provide additional subsidies to accommodate seniors on fixed Social Security incomes.

They were given the impression, she says, that the city would provide additional subsidies and preferences to ensure that neighborhood seniors could afford the rent. Those subsidies, she said, never came.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For its part, MEDA, the developer, said that the city would need to provide additional subsidies to accommodate seniors on fixed Social Security incomes. The group said it held multiple community meetings since taking on the project, and consistently advised attendees that the development would indeed provide \"affordable housing for low-income seniors,\" said Christopher Gil, a spokesman for MEDA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We heard from some seniors on very low, fixed Social Security incomes that they would not be eligible, so we then stated that we, and other community-based organizations, would work and advocate with these community members to find subsidies so that they would have a chance to qualify,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MEDA joined other community groups in successfully pushing the San Francisco Board of Supervisors to approve \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Neighborhood-preference-program-for-affordable-13668858.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a plan\u003c/a> that gives preference to Mission District residents in the lottery for Casa Adelante, Gil said. His group, he said, is now advocating for the Senior Operating Subsidy introduced by board President Norman Yee, which would make project-based subsidies available to the city's most vulnerable seniors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are all looking at other prospective subsidies, too,\" Gil said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Orellana said more immediate action than that is needed to help her community and make sure they have secure places to live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have grown old in this city, working hard, paying our taxes, and now we have nowhere to go, they're kicking us out,\" she said. \"If we don't get what we're asking for here, we'll end up asking for money in the streets because we won't have anywhere to live.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
