It was slammed for its scale and density. Eventually, the developer, CH Planning LLC, withdrew its name from consideration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, the San Francisco Housing Development Corporation has partnered with Housing America to submit an application on Tuesday for a 22-story, mixed-income building with senior housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal envisions a 446-unit building spanning approximately 38,000 square feet, complete with a parking lot designed to accommodate both bicycles and cars. About half of the units, which range from studio apartments to condominiums, would be set aside as affordable senior housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The planning application estimates construction costs at $223 million and includes plans for amenities such as over 4,000 square feet of shared common spaces, electric vehicle charging stations, and both public and private parking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12018944\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12018944\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1125\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/OceanTowerRendering1-1920x1080.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A rendering of the proposed development at 2700 Sloat Blvd. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of SCB and Bezier)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The building would appear to be somewhat split in two, according to Dan Sider, chief of staff of the city’s planning department. He described two conjoined buildings that form a cohesive structure, with one building facing the ocean and the other on a slight slant, facing the East.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although CH Planning still legally owns the site, its manager, Raelynn Hickey, said that the company is in the process of selling to the new developers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have nothing to do with their proposed project,” Hickey said in a written statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new developers have submitted their application under state law AB 2011, which streamlines certain regulatory requirements typically required for development projects, such as full environmental reviews and prior approval from the planning commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12018466 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/20241217-UnhousedDemonstrations-JY-054-1020x679.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the developers claim that the proposed project “exceeds” AB 2011’s standards, the application is still under review to determine if it qualifies for the expedited approval process granted by the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sider noted that the proposal “hasn’t yet been assessed for Code compliance, but we remain hopeful that the project will be thoughtfully designed and adhere to all regulations.” He added that the location “has always been an ideal spot for new housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The original plan for a 50-story, 712-unit high-rise was met with fierce opposition from city planners, residents and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/joel-engardio\">Supervisor Joel Engardio\u003c/a>, who represents the Sunset District, where the site is located.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Engardio called the initial proposal a “middle finger to the city” and dismissed it as a plan “no one would take seriously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the new proposal significantly reduces the building’s height, with only 22 stories, Engardio remains critical.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Twenty-two stories is still far beyond what’s reasonable,” he said in an interview. “We need to stop dreaming up massive skyscrapers at the beach and focus on real housing that will meet the needs of real families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Engardio pointed out that the Coastal Commission will need to weigh in on the project and criticized the developers for not adhering to the Sunset District’s current zoning laws, which limit building heights to 10 stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need more housing for seniors and families in the Sunset and throughout San Francisco,” Engardio said. “But no one wants Ocean Beach to turn into Miami Beach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

A public defender representing Jones challenged the charges, citing officers’ body-worn camera footage, and a judge dismissed them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would like to hold police accountable for their misconduct, which has caused me a lot of anguish and pain,” Jones said in a statement. “Our police are trained to react with aggression and violence. That erodes trust.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 24, about a dozen San Francisco Police Department officers were positioned near the Israeli Consulate in response to a protest happening outside, according to the complaint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8b1O7j6Ql3etNsJsVSb1mct9IBsCUeSx\">Body-worn camera footage\u003c/a> shows officers pulling a person to the ground after suspecting that they had taken a bag of police equipment. Jones, walking with her bicycle toward the officers, shouts at them to stop and leave the person alone. The complaint estimates that Jones never got closer than 30 to 40 feet from that arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12017456 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/475371681_qed-1020x681.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officer Jasmine Williams then approaches Jones and appears to push her with a baton as another officer shouts, “Back up!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m trying to get to my office building. It’s right there!” Jones said, pointing in the direction of the recent arrest where officers had formed a line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Go down Spring, go around,” an officer responds, pointing back in the direction she came from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another person is seen standing nearby and then walking in the direction Jones meant to go without being stopped by police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams continues to press her baton against Jones and, along with another officer, obstructs her path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zac Dillon, a senior law and policy analyst with the public defender’s office, said this is where the officers failed to de-escalate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The core elements of de-escalation are time and distance,” Dillon said. “And both of those were taken away in this situation by getting closer and hemming her in closer to the building, essentially corralling her up against the wall.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The footage shows Jones, appearing increasingly distressed, beginning to yell for help and waving her arm above her head. She tries to move left and right to get around the officers, but Williams stays directly in front of her with her arm pushing Jones. Williams repeatedly said, “Get out of my face.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Jones brings her arm down, it seems to land on Williams’ helmet, and the footage shows Williams’ head briefly getting pulled with it. The officers then pull Jones to the ground, pin her and handcuff her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the public defender’s office’s complaint, officers described that moment in their reports as Jones violently yanking at Williams’ helmet, but the complaint said it was nothing more than incidental contact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams also accused Jones of reaching for her neck, although that isn’t apparent in the footage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several officers failed to document the repeated force Williams used against Jones before that moment, according to the complaint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were dressed for violence. They were dressed for confrontations. They were out there in their riot gear, and so I think they see threats where there aren’t necessarily threats … so they’re more inclined to escalate,” Dillon said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that a complaint has been filed, the Department of Police Accountability will likely review the footage, conduct interviews and make a decision within about nine months to a year, according to Dillon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could mean deciding the police were either in the right or violated policy — in which case the department would recommend disciplinary action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they do find a policy violation, then it would be referred to either the chief for meting out discipline if it’s under a certain amount of 10 days suspension, which I imagine it would be in this case,” Dillon said. “In more serious cases, it’s referred directly to the Police Commission, who will then have a sort of mini-trial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, the San Francisco Police Department said it is unable to talk about open investigations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

October saw the lowest number of overdose deaths: 35.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Department of Public Health Director Dr. Grant Colfax credited the declines, in part, to increased treatment options in San Francisco, in particular, an increase in injectable treatments that only need to be administered once a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe this decrease can be partly attributed to the gains we have seen in new clients starting medications for opioid use disorder and in our other treatment programs,” he said. “These are life-saving medications that reduce the risk of death from overdose by as much as 50%. That is why, in this era of fentanyl, we have been focused on getting more people into drug treatment and on the road to recovery. This means getting people off the streets and into treatment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"SF monthly drug overdose deaths in 2023 and 2024 \" aria-label=\"Grouped Columns\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-dNArr\" src=\"https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/dNArr/1/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border: none;\" width=\"800\" height=\"485\" data-external=\"1\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colfax said San Francisco has significantly increased prescriptions over the past two years for medications used to treat opioid disorder, including buprenorphine and methadone. And, he said, the city has seen a sharp reduction — 50% — in how long it takes to get people into residential substance abuse treatment programs, resulting in a 35% increase in participation in those programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that everyone’s path to recovery is unique and that different treatments work for different individuals,” Colfax said, noting that both buprenorphine and methadone reduce opioid cravings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But many of these medications typically require patients to take multiple doses a day or, in the case of methadone, make daily visits to a clinic for supervised administration,” he said. “That is why injectable buprenorphine can be a game-changer for some people.”\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco hit a high of 810 overdose deaths in 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If you are going to cut courses, your enrollment is going to continue to decline,” said Flowers, a junior who transferred from community college in Los Altos Hills, California, and is minoring in counseling. “No one wants to come to a college where they won’t be able to graduate on time and get the courses that they need to graduate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco State must reduce its budget by about $25 million, according to Mahoney. In addition, the school is expecting state budget cuts next year. Mahoney declared a financial emergency in an email to faculty on Dec. 5, adding that every university unit will need to make “hard reductions.” She urged staff to advocate for SF State to lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to make it clear how important it is to fund the CSU and SF State.
