In \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/read-the-full-filing-tossing-trumps-classified-documents-trial\">an order\u003c/a> on Monday morning dismissing the case, Judge Aileen M.

It’s been done so many times, and so many courts have upheld it before today,” he told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cannon’s handling of the documents case has raised eyebrows since its beginning, according to Chemerinsky. The Trump-appointed judge previously asked the FBI to halt reviewing records obtained in a search of the former president’s Mar-a-Lago residence until a third party could review them for any information covered by attorney-client or executive privileges — a decision the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals later rejected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the case, “her rulings, like today’s, have strongly favored Donald Trump,” Chemerinsky said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The dismissal comes on the first day of the Republican National Convention, where Trump officially became the party’s presidential nominee and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11994052/trump-picks-j-d-vance-as-vice-presidential-running-mate\">announced Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance\u003c/a> as his running mate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He still faces three other criminal cases. Though he was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11988282/former-president-trump-is-found-guilty-in-historic-new-york-criminal-case\">convicted in May\u003c/a> of falsifying business records in a New York hush-money case, sentencing has been pushed back in light of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11992777/extreme-court-puts-trump-above-the-law-in-immunity-ruling-california-democrats-say\">Supreme Court decision\u003c/a> granting former presidents broad immunity for official acts. That ruling will have major consequences for a separate federal case over Trump’s attempts to subvert the 2020 election and his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection. Another election interference case filed in Georgia has been delayed amid turmoil in the Fulton County district attorney’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith can appeal Monday’s decision in the classified documents case and likely will, but Chemerinsky is urging Garland to have the Justice Department refile the indictment itself through the United States attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although that would circumvent the lengthy appeals process, Chemerinsky said it does undermine part of the appeal of a special counsel — separating the case from politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a loss of public confidence when the investigator, the prosecutor, is responsible to a political appointee, the attorney general,” he said. “The value of having a special counsel is that it’s somebody who has a degree of independence, and we are more likely to have confidence in the investigation and prosecution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Either through an appeal or a refiling, Chemerinsky believes it is “inconceivable” that the case be tried before November, solidifying that if Trump is elected, he will likely pardon himself with regard to the charges. Whether this is legal is a question that hasn’t yet been answered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Sukey Lewis contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The Trump-appointed judge previously asked the FBI to halt reviewing records obtained in a search of the former president’s Mar-a-Lago residence until a third party could review them for any information covered by attorney-client or executive privileges — a decision the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals later rejected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the case, “her rulings, like today’s, have strongly favored Donald Trump,” Chemerinsky said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The dismissal comes on the first day of the Republican National Convention, where Trump officially became the party’s presidential nominee and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11994052/trump-picks-j-d-vance-as-vice-presidential-running-mate\">announced Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance\u003c/a> as his running mate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He still faces three other criminal cases. Though he was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11988282/former-president-trump-is-found-guilty-in-historic-new-york-criminal-case\">convicted in May\u003c/a> of falsifying business records in a New York hush-money case, sentencing has been pushed back in light of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11992777/extreme-court-puts-trump-above-the-law-in-immunity-ruling-california-democrats-say\">Supreme Court decision\u003c/a> granting former presidents broad immunity for official acts. That ruling will have major consequences for a separate federal case over Trump’s attempts to subvert the 2020 election and his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection. Another election interference case filed in Georgia has been delayed amid turmoil in the Fulton County district attorney’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith can appeal Monday’s decision in the classified documents case and likely will, but Chemerinsky is urging Garland to have the Justice Department refile the indictment itself through the United States attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although that would circumvent the lengthy appeals process, Chemerinsky said it does undermine part of the appeal of a special counsel — separating the case from politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a loss of public confidence when the investigator, the prosecutor, is responsible to a political appointee, the attorney general,” he said. “The value of having a special counsel is that it’s somebody who has a degree of independence, and we are more likely to have confidence in the investigation and prosecution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Either through an appeal or a refiling, Chemerinsky believes it is “inconceivable” that the case be tried before November, solidifying that if Trump is elected, he will likely pardon himself with regard to the charges. Whether this is legal is a question that hasn’t yet been answered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Sukey Lewis contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Vance as his running mate on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement was made minutes before Trump was formally nominated to lead the GOP presidential ticket for a third time at the start of the four-day Republican National Convention — and two days after Trump was shot in an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vance, 39, is a first-term senator who became famous for \u003cem>Hillbilly Elegy\u003c/em>, his 2016 memoir about growing up poor in Ohio. The Marine veteran and a graduate of Yale Law School is a former venture capitalist who served as a principal for a company co-founded by Peter Thiel. Vance worked out of the firm’s San Francisco office in 2016 and 2017, according to news reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Vance referred to himself as a “Never Trump guy” in an interview with Charlie Rose. By the time he decided to run for office, Vance had changed his tune. He received Trump’s endorsement, which helped boost his candidacy in the 2022 primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vance’s memoir tapped into rural, working-class resentment that aided Trump’s first run for the White House. He has become a reliable Trump supporter and surrogate in Congress, on the campaign trail and on TV hits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vance is an immigration hard-liner like Trump, and voters could potentially view him as Trump’s appointed successor for the MAGA movement. He was among the GOP leaders who criticized President Joe Biden in the wake of the assassination attempt on Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs,” Vance posted on X. “That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over several months, Vance, who is fiercely anti-abortion, jockeyed to be Trump’s pick with other hopefuls, including Sen.

"content": "\u003cp>Housing will be top of mind for many San Francisco voters this November, and mayoral candidates hoping to lead the city out of its affordability crunch are rolling out competing plans to tackle the problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While their strategies differ, one thing the leading candidates agree on is the city desperately needs to take bold action on housing. San Francisco is on the hook to add 82,000 housing units by 2031 — and is still far from reaching its goal. That’s because the city has long struggled to produce more housing, due to a combination of zoning limits and high production costs, exacerbated by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11965492/san-francisco-takes-forever-to-approve-new-housing-california-officials-are-forcing-change\">lengthy approval processes in City Hall\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is not enough housing built and the geography where it is being built doesn’t match with where the highest resources are,” said Sujata Srivastava, chief policy officer at the San Francisco Bay Area Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR), a nonprofit public policy organization. “We have met all of our housing production in the last few decades almost entirely in the eastern neighborhoods and there is very little happening in the northern and west side neighborhoods.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The majority of San Francisco residents, about 65%, are renters. And at least 27% of those renters spend more than a third of their income on housing, and closer to 40% for families with low income, who on average earn $70,237 annually, \u003ca href=\"https://www.moodys.com/web/en/us/about/insights/data-stories/q3-2023-rental-affordability.html#:~:text=Based%20on%20Moody's%20analysis%2C%20low,of%20their%20income%20on%20rent.\">according to a 2023 Moody’s report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But building more affordable housing for lower- and middle-income residents has been a particularly difficult equation to solve — one that each candidate said they’re determined to fix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take Mayor London Breed, who has vowed to veto “any piece of anti-housing legislation” that comes across her desk. She recently received \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11992943/sf-mayor-london-breed-wins-key-yimby-endorsement-after-string-of-misses\">a significant endorsement from YIMBY Action\u003c/a>, a political advocacy group that advocates for housing development at all income levels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her six years as mayor, Breed has overseen the creation of thousands of new units, despite falling woefully short of state requirements. In the first six months of 2023, for example, the city permitted 179 new units, or less than one home on average per day, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/sites/default/files/docs/policy-and-research/plan-report/sf-housing-policy-and-practice-review.pdf\">2023 review (PDF)\u003c/a> from the California Department of Housing and Community Development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her plan, dubbed Housing for All, launched in February 2023 and moved to cut inclusionary fees by nearly a third after a city committee suggested they were too high to make many projects feasible. Inclusionary fees require housing developers of projects with 10 or more units to either pay a fee into the city’s affordable housing fund, or include a portion of below-market units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To encourage more development, Breed said she is open to further reducing those fees to trigger new housing construction in San Francisco. She also introduced a $300 million affordable housing bond, which voters passed in March, that will fund building, acquiring or rehabilitating affordable units in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11992945\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11992945\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco Mayor London Breed speaks during a press conference in support of a regional affordable housing measure at Five88, a mixed-use residential and retail property, in the Mission Bay neighborhood in San Francisco on June 20, 2024. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“As much as I want the inclusionary funds for affordable housing, I want housing, period,” Breed told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed’s competitors Mark Farrell, a former supervisor and interim mayor, and Daniel Lurie, an anti-poverty nonprofit founder and Levi Strauss heir, agree on further reducing fees used to fund affordable housing. Lurie’s plan includes an economic impact analysis to recommend fee reductions, while Farrell, who recently secured support from the San Francisco Building and Construction Trades Council, proposes decreasing the current 12% rate to 10%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now developers are voting with their pocket books, investing (housing) in other cities and not San Francisco because we have made it too onerous,” Farrell told KQED, stressing that the current administration has “failed” to move fast enough on the city’s housing shortage. “There are affordable housing measures on the ballot that I will always support, but we can’t shy away from the argument or the reality that building more housing increases affordability.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisors and fellow mayoral candidates Ahsha Safaí and Aaron Peskin told KQED that proactively lowering affordable housing fees is not an immediate priority since the city in 2023 created a process to review and adjust inclusionary fees already. Under that change, the city reviews fee rates every three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there is a need to lower it more we can have that conversation, but we did that,” Safaí said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Excelsior Supervisor added that he thinks further reducing the transfer tax from 6% to 3% on union-backed projects, meaning fees tacked on when property is exchanged from one owner to another, could also spur development. But with\u003ca href=\"https://sfplanning.org/project/pipeline-report#current-dashboard\"> tens of thousands of units\u003c/a> in various phases of the housing development process already, Safaí is also proposing a full audit of the Department of Building Inspection to find inefficiencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed, Farrell and Lurie all agree on upzoning and building housing around major transit and commercial corridors on streets such as Van Ness, Geary and Lombard. Lurie says he wants to allow approving more six-to-eight-story buildings and create a new role in city hall to shepherd housing projects with community input.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin, a longtime supervisor for the city’s densest neighborhoods including North Beach and Chinatown, has been criticized by his opponents for blocking some housing projects in particular around the North Beach and waterfront areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he’s not the only candidate who has a history of blocking some housing projects. As supervisor, Farrell opposed an \u003ca href=\"https://sfbgarchive.48hills.org/sfbgarchive/2011/05/31/not-our-neighborhood/\">affordable housing project at Booker T. Washington\u003c/a>, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike his competitors who are eager to build housing for all income levels, Peskin wants to prioritize building more housing that’s affordable to lower- and middle-income households. He’s currently working to pass legislation that would utilize tax-exempt government-issued revenue bonds to build housing affordable to the middle class including teachers, health care workers and first responders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11990139\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11990139\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left, Manny Yekutiel, proprietor of the event space Manny’s and Heather Knight, San Francisco bureau chief of The New York Times, moderate the San Francisco mayoral debate featuring Ahsha Safaí, Mark Farrell, Daniel Lurie, London Breed and Aaron Peskin at the Sydney Goldstein Theater on June 12, 2024. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The idea is to build affordable housing specifically for people earning 80%–120% of the area median income (AMI), like teachers, firefighters, service workers who might make too much to qualify for low-income housing but not enough to pay market-rate rent prices. It would cap rents at 15% below market rate or limit rents to caps set by the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development for people with those income ranges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of the moderate conservative candidates in the race are singularly focused on turning Ocean Beach into Miami Beach, and they are all focused on the problem which is zoning and not financing,” Peskin told KQED. “How we build workforce housing and affordable middle-income housing is where the work needs to be done.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But at least one affordable housing developer has already \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11993629/san-francisco-developers-slam-peskins-middle-income-housing-plan-as-redundant\">criticized the plan\u003c/a>, arguing the savings for renters immediately don’t add up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing affordability experts like SPUR’s Srivastava say increasing the city’s housing inventory is necessary to keep rents affordable, but development should be done thoughtfully to avoid displacing more vulnerable communities and neighborhoods that could get priced out with additional market-rate development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People on the westside and northern neighborhoods are watching this issue carefully,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to lowering fees and exempting transfer taxes on multifamily projects, Lurie’s plan includes speeding up housing approvals by cutting certain design guidelines and creating a “shot clock” that sets maximum review times and standards for project approvals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city has close to 73,000 units in the pipeline, \u003ca href=\"https://sfplanning.org/project/pipeline-report#current-dashboard\">24% of which are considered affordable\u003c/a>, but a lack of financing for those affordable and middle-income projects is a major impediment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The city’s role can no longer be just about rezoning,” former San Francisco Planning Director John Rahaim said in a prepared statement.

San Francisco is on the hook to add 82,000 housing units by 2031 — and is still far from reaching its goal. That’s because the city has long struggled to produce more housing, due to a combination of zoning limits and high production costs, exacerbated by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11965492/san-francisco-takes-forever-to-approve-new-housing-california-officials-are-forcing-change\">lengthy approval processes in City Hall\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is not enough housing built and the geography where it is being built doesn’t match with where the highest resources are,” said Sujata Srivastava, chief policy officer at the San Francisco Bay Area Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR), a nonprofit public policy organization. “We have met all of our housing production in the last few decades almost entirely in the eastern neighborhoods and there is very little happening in the northern and west side neighborhoods.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And at least 27% of those renters spend more than a third of their income on housing, and closer to 40% for families with low income, who on average earn $70,237 annually, \u003ca href=\"https://www.moodys.com/web/en/us/about/insights/data-stories/q3-2023-rental-affordability.html#:~:text=Based%20on%20Moody's%20analysis%2C%20low,of%20their%20income%20on%20rent.\">according to a 2023 Moody’s report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But building more affordable housing for lower- and middle-income residents has been a particularly difficult equation to solve — one that each candidate said they’re determined to fix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take Mayor London Breed, who has vowed to veto “any piece of anti-housing legislation” that comes across her desk. She recently received \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11992943/sf-mayor-london-breed-wins-key-yimby-endorsement-after-string-of-misses\">a significant endorsement from YIMBY Action\u003c/a>, a political advocacy group that advocates for housing development at all income levels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her six years as mayor, Breed has overseen the creation of thousands of new units, despite falling woefully short of state requirements. In the first six months of 2023, for example, the city permitted 179 new units, or less than one home on average per day, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/sites/default/files/docs/policy-and-research/plan-report/sf-housing-policy-and-practice-review.pdf\">2023 review (PDF)\u003c/a> from the California Department of Housing and Community Development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her plan, dubbed Housing for All, launched in February 2023 and moved to cut inclusionary fees by nearly a third after a city committee suggested they were too high to make many projects feasible. Inclusionary fees require housing developers of projects with 10 or more units to either pay a fee into the city’s affordable housing fund, or include a portion of below-market units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To encourage more development, Breed said she is open to further reducing those fees to trigger new housing construction in San Francisco. She also introduced a $300 million affordable housing bond, which voters passed in March, that will fund building, acquiring or rehabilitating affordable units in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11992945\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11992945\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240620-AffordableHousingPresser-05-BL_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco Mayor London Breed speaks during a press conference in support of a regional affordable housing measure at Five88, a mixed-use residential and retail property, in the Mission Bay neighborhood in San Francisco on June 20, 2024. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“As much as I want the inclusionary funds for affordable housing, I want housing, period,” Breed told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed’s competitors Mark Farrell, a former supervisor and interim mayor, and Daniel Lurie, an anti-poverty nonprofit founder and Levi Strauss heir, agree on further reducing fees used to fund affordable housing. Lurie’s plan includes an economic impact analysis to recommend fee reductions, while Farrell, who recently secured support from the San Francisco Building and Construction Trades Council, proposes decreasing the current 12% rate to 10%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now developers are voting with their pocket books, investing (housing) in other cities and not San Francisco because we have made it too onerous,” Farrell told KQED, stressing that the current administration has “failed” to move fast enough on the city’s housing shortage. “There are affordable housing measures on the ballot that I will always support, but we can’t shy away from the argument or the reality that building more housing increases affordability.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisors and fellow mayoral candidates Ahsha Safaí and Aaron Peskin told KQED that proactively lowering affordable housing fees is not an immediate priority since the city in 2023 created a process to review and adjust inclusionary fees already. Under that change, the city reviews fee rates every three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there is a need to lower it more we can have that conversation, but we did that,” Safaí said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Excelsior Supervisor added that he thinks further reducing the transfer tax from 6% to 3% on union-backed projects, meaning fees tacked on when property is exchanged from one owner to another, could also spur development. But with\u003ca href=\"https://sfplanning.org/project/pipeline-report#current-dashboard\"> tens of thousands of units\u003c/a> in various phases of the housing development process already, Safaí is also proposing a full audit of the Department of Building Inspection to find inefficiencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed, Farrell and Lurie all agree on upzoning and building housing around major transit and commercial corridors on streets such as Van Ness, Geary and Lombard. Lurie says he wants to allow approving more six-to-eight-story buildings and create a new role in city hall to shepherd housing projects with community input.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin, a longtime supervisor for the city’s densest neighborhoods including North Beach and Chinatown, has been criticized by his opponents for blocking some housing projects in particular around the North Beach and waterfront areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he’s not the only candidate who has a history of blocking some housing projects. As supervisor, Farrell opposed an \u003ca href=\"https://sfbgarchive.48hills.org/sfbgarchive/2011/05/31/not-our-neighborhood/\">affordable housing project at Booker T. Washington\u003c/a>, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike his competitors who are eager to build housing for all income levels, Peskin wants to prioritize building more housing that’s affordable to lower- and middle-income households. He’s currently working to pass legislation that would utilize tax-exempt government-issued revenue bonds to build housing affordable to the middle class including teachers, health care workers and first responders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11990139\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11990139\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/240612-SFMayoralDebate-09-BL-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left, Manny Yekutiel, proprietor of the event space Manny’s and Heather Knight, San Francisco bureau chief of The New York Times, moderate the San Francisco mayoral debate featuring Ahsha Safaí, Mark Farrell, Daniel Lurie, London Breed and Aaron Peskin at the Sydney Goldstein Theater on June 12, 2024. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The idea is to build affordable housing specifically for people earning 80%–120% of the area median income (AMI), like teachers, firefighters, service workers who might make too much to qualify for low-income housing but not enough to pay market-rate rent prices. It would cap rents at 15% below market rate or limit rents to caps set by the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development for people with those income ranges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of the moderate conservative candidates in the race are singularly focused on turning Ocean Beach into Miami Beach, and they are all focused on the problem which is zoning and not financing,” Peskin told KQED. “How we build workforce housing and affordable middle-income housing is where the work needs to be done.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But at least one affordable housing developer has already \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11993629/san-francisco-developers-slam-peskins-middle-income-housing-plan-as-redundant\">criticized the plan\u003c/a>, arguing the savings for renters immediately don’t add up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing affordability experts like SPUR’s Srivastava say increasing the city’s housing inventory is necessary to keep rents affordable, but development should be done thoughtfully to avoid displacing more vulnerable communities and neighborhoods that could get priced out with additional market-rate development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People on the westside and northern neighborhoods are watching this issue carefully,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to lowering fees and exempting transfer taxes on multifamily projects, Lurie’s plan includes speeding up housing approvals by cutting certain design guidelines and creating a “shot clock” that sets maximum review times and standards for project approvals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city has close to 73,000 units in the pipeline, \u003ca href=\"https://sfplanning.org/project/pipeline-report#current-dashboard\">24% of which are considered affordable\u003c/a>, but a lack of financing for those affordable and middle-income projects is a major impediment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The city’s role can no longer be just about rezoning,” former San Francisco Planning Director John Rahaim said in a prepared statement.
