Housing

Housing -Many people are being forced to leave the city due to ever rising housing costs.  San Francisco needs more affordable housing for all its citizens.  I believe that we could utilize smarter design choices to create housing choices that would cost residents less than today’s options.  For example, we could encourage home builders and developers to build housing adjacent to, or very near, transportation corridors.  This would allow residents easy access to public transportation and reduce or eliminate the reliance on personal cars for their daily commute.  Cleaner air would be a long term peripheral benefit as a result of fewer automobile emissions.
