On February 7, San Francisco Mayor London Breed launched a Housing for All Plan to fundamentally change how we approve and build housing.
This executive directive will help San Francisco take action on its commitment to build more than 82,000 new homes in the next eight years, mostly near transit and in the less-dense areas of the city. It shows the Mayor is serious about implementing the city’s recently adopted long-term housing plan, called a Housing Element.
This is good news for families, the working class, and a surprising community: climate and environmental advocates. That’s because San Francisco is an inherently low-emissions city with plenty of compact, walkable neighborhoods. The more housing we build here, the more families can join in our low carbon, sprawl-free lifestyle!
