This morning I took another unannounced tour of our streets, this time in SOMA, and it's clear there's a lot of work to be done. There are a number of public health issues that we can't allow to continue.

Here are some of the ways we're going to make a noticeable difference:
Our new budget allocates $550,000 per year to create the SOMA Clean initiative, which will focus intensive, targeted cleaning in the area with dedicated, consistent street cleaning and litter collection.
We're adding five new Pit Stops (public restrooms) citywide and expanding hours at five locations. We're also increasing investments in our @FixItTeamSF and the Downtown Streets Team to quickly address safety and cleanliness issues.
We're working with @SFAIDSFound to hire 10 new workers to clean up syringes and adding 3 new needle disposal boxes. This month we announced a first in the nation Safe Injection Site demonstration at @GLIDEsf--these sites can reduce public drug use and provide access to treatment.
We must do more to help our homeless population get care and shelter, which is why I'm increasing funding for residential care facilities and leading the charge to reform our conservatorship laws to help those suffering from severe mental illness & addiction.
This is going to take a sustained, focused effort and I'm committed to seeing it through.
