Failure of so-called progressives on BOS, yet again

.@DeanPreston and @HillaryRonen particularly disappointing. But then SF progressives ALWAYS let perfect be the enemy of the good. sfgate.com/local/article/… 
If you won't vote for a development with 1/4th of units set aside for affordable housing to be built on a parking lot near transit, just stop claiming you're for more density.
City leaders who vote against sensible density with big affordable allotments are no better than the "roll coal" folks. It's deadly deferred action on climate on housing and everything that flows from each.
How do the most progressive supes give into BS arguments from people *who aren't even in their district*???
Gonna be awesome when all the "but what if it makes shade for an hour" people realize that they'll be desperately hoping for shade as the goddam state bakes.
AND IT IS A PARKING LOT
AND IT IS A PARKING LOT
Maaaaaaaybe before straw man arguments of gentrification hold sway over sensible development the other supervisors should listen to the person who represents the district in question. Not like @MattHaneySF is some neolib!
Or maybe showing up Haney was the point. The internal soap opera of the BOS never fails to find a new layer of pathetic.

That close watchers of BOS think that the majority just spiked 500 units of housing and all the jobs that come with it b/c it might help Haney (ever so slightly) against his rival for an Assembly seat, David Campos, is just so so so so gross.

“This is at least partly about punishing Matt Haney for running against Campos,” he said. “They see it as a betrayal.”

“The 495 units on Stevenson Street would have meant hundreds of jobs for a two-year construction period.”

Oh and by the way @HillaryRonen @AaronPeskin @DeanPreston @RafaelMandelman @D4GordonMar @myrnamelgar @conniechansf @shamannwalton didn’t just vote to protect a Nordstrom’s parking lot over 500 units and hundreds of union jobs, the voted to protect a VALET parking lot.
Looks like these SF Supervisors may have broken the law with this particular bit of cronyism meets NIMBYism. 🧑🍳💋
