Hey there, San Francisco. 

Happy Thursday. And apologies again for my blunder in yesterday’s newsletter. If you didn’t catch my correction email, I had mistakenly inverted the results for Prop C. 

Currently, the correct vote count is 60.1% No vs. 39.9% Yes.

As a reminder, Prop C would have limited when an elected official could be recalled. It would have also restricted the mayoral appointee for a recalled position from running in the next election. 

Around 14,000 more votes were released on Thursday, and the only prop that really remains in question is the $400 million MUNI bond, Prop A. 

With the added tally today, it moved from 63.3% of the vote to 63.6%. And while some 86,000 votes remain to be counted, it’ll be an uphill climb to reach the 66.7% it needs to pass.

With that… onto the news… 

Quick bits: News to know 

🚪 On Tuesday, the board of supervisors unanimously passed an ordinance called a "Place for All,” which, like its name suggests, “makes it San Francisco’s official policy to offer all unhoused people a safe place to sleep,” the Chronicle’s JD Morris writes. 

• In practice, the legislation asks the San Francisco's homelessness department to come up with a plan by the end of the year detailing how it would provide shelter, supportive housing, and safe parking sites to all the city’s unhoused people. Supervisors did not approve any new spending, Morris notes. 

• In a recent count, 4,397 of San Francisco’s 7,754 unhoused people slept on the streets – not in shelter beds or transitional housing. 

• Homelessness and Supportive Housing (HSH) director Emily Cohen said the ordinance “definitely gives us more specific direction for our strategic planning.” Still, Supervisor Aaron Peskin was skeptical, asking: “Isn’t that what [HSH is] supposed to do, to have a plan to end homelessness in San Francisco?” (Chronicle / SFist) 

💧 Some 400 tenants have been displaced from their downtown, luxury apartments after a water pipe broke late last week and flooded all 35 floors. On Thursday, the Chronicle reported that there’s “no immediate time-frame” for the building (33 Tehama St.) to reopen. 

• In the meantime, residents have been put up in nearby hotels by the building’s owners, but some are still unhappy. 

• “They think they're giving us adequate housing,” one resident, Tyler Patterson,  told the SF Business Times. “But, you know, our apartments have washers and dryers and kitchens — so it's not comparable housing in my mind at the moment.” 

• Residents are also getting additional funds for food, access to coworking space, Uber vouchers, and $300 per day to spend on accommodations if they choose not to stay in one of the hotels. But, Patterson said, “only after we applied so much pressure on them, they [came] up with a per diem.” (Chronicle / SF Business Times) 

👮 Tony Montoya, who served as president of the San Francisco Police Officers Association since 2018, has stepped down amid “rumors of financial impropriety,” the SF Standard’s Michael Barba writes. 

• Lieutenant Tracy McCray, who served as acting POA president while Montoya was out on extended medical leave recently, will take his place. (SF Standard)
