Q: What is SF's greatest unsolved challenge?
@myrnamelgard7.bsky.social: affordable housing. The city's housing department is "dinky" and only does lending, no policy. We need a stable source of funding.

Q: What will you do to stop the "whiplash" of recalls? (This was supposed to be for the mayor.)
@myrnamelgard7.bsky.social, who might be threatened w/a recall for her role passing the upzoning plan, says some supes want a city charter reform to make it harder.

Side note, now that Lurie has left: There was a lot less flak at this meeting than at recent D4 and D2 town halls that were specifically about the housing/upzoning plan.
