The nearest we have to this in San Francisco is the 2018 "Our City Our Home" fund. The Mayor's office recently persuaded the Supes to spend some of that fund on shelters instead of housing; the Supervisors knocked the fund's main creator off its board; and Proposition A on our upcoming Nov. 3, 2026 ballot would make it easier to crumple or end the board in future.
Cities can make good things. It's possible. But SF's centrist/conservative elected majority doesn't share that hope.
