San Francisco affords housing opponents many chances to appeal new developments, but this one is a conversion of apartments built two years ago. The most influence these neighbors can probably have is to help craft a “good neighbor policy” with the city, barring intervention from Matt Dorsey, the supervisor whose District 6 includes the project.
But Dorsey has already voted his blessing twice. “I’m cautiously optimistic,” he said during a July 14 hearing, adding that he trusts the city’s Homelessness and Supportive Housing Department (HSH) to “get this project right.”
