San Francisco's Planning Commission turned routine procedure into a referendum on the city's housing crisis — unanimously backing sweeping tenant protections while greenlighting a critical infrastructure rebuild that will demolish a historic bridge. The Nov. 6 session revealed commissioners threading a needle between state housing mandates and local displacement fears, with every vote landing 7–0 despite hours of heated public testimony.
Tenant Protections ordinance advances: Commission recommended approval with modifications, targeting demolition loopholes and strengthening relocation assistance
Islais Creek Bridge EIR certified: Historic 3rd Street bridge demolition approved despite "significant unavoidable impacts" to heritage and transit
