A state of emergency declaration in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district has been approved by the city’s board of supervisors.
Mayor London Breed proposed the declaration last week, which allows the city to waive certain laws in an effort to more quickly address the drug use and homelessness in the Tenderloin, according to the city.
Some actions officials said they are planning are opening a temporary site where people with substance use issues can receive behavioral health services and get off the street. The emergency declaration allows the city to bypass some contract and zoning rules to get this site set up fast.
In addition, the state of emergency allows the city to expeditiously hire 200 behavioral health clinicians to fill current vacancies, waiving certain laws around hiring, the city said.
“The Tenderloin needs change, and that requires us to do things different,” said Breed in a press release. We showed during COVID that when we’re able to use an Emergency Declaration to cut through the bureaucracy and barriers that get in the way of decisive action, we can get things done and make real, tangible progress.
Don’t like a law? Simply declare it no longer valid or increase enforcement of it. You know, “mares” can do that stuff.
This is probably good news if you’re an unemployed behavioral health clinician. But as far as it even mitigating S.F.’s problem, let alone fixing it, no chance. Zip..
Zero.
None.
Liberal mindset: change the laws against whatever the problem is and now the problem is solved!
Look how fast the thugs who carjacked that Rat Rep in PA were caught.
The moral of the story is: You can rob and destroy the people, but don't you dare attack us elites.
Never been. Just how IS the tenderloin there?
200 more mental health charlatans. Thatll help /s
So behavioral health clinicians are going to fix a crime problem?
Conservatives in California need to leave post-haste. You can’t fix stupid and you can’t negotiate with insane.
They plan to just declare an “emergency” whenever they want, and enact whatever orders they want. Passing laws is so “old fashioned.”
“How is the tenderloin.”
The Soylent Green facility has just opened and is being tested.
We will have to wait for the food testers (aka “health professionals”) to evaluate it.
Last year they spent $106,000 per homeless person on assistance, clearly they need to up that figure some.
Self loathing, masochistic liberals in power create locales that reflect their own miserable inner state. The devolution of San Francisco and other urban areas should be a warning to all decent people as to the real hazard of voting for any Democrat.
Liberals=Just change the terms. Murder becomes Illegal Life Terminations Murder stopped ILTs rise. Change the words and the problems (in the Media) stop. Double ungood.
Murder = PBA...... Post Birth Abortion
There is now no age limit on PBA’s in the derelict City State of San Francsico
Nope. More mamby pamby liberal coddling TREATMENT CENTERS and behavorial do-gooders.

Whenever I see a special program being set up to “solve” a problem the only thing I can think of is “slush fund”.
This is the way politicians line their pockets.
The beauty of this type of corruption is that it looks like they are doing something, books are seldom audited and the problem never gets solved so they can do it again later.
“Some actions officials said they are planning are opening a temporary site where people with substance use issues can receive behavioral health services and get off the street.”
There are several mothballed military bases in the Aleutian Islands. Would be a shame to see them go to waste.
not to mention those tent dwellers that are not politically correct
What holds those from blowing away or do they drive stakes into the asphalt?
Recent tent design supports the tent with flexible aluminun rods curved to form the tent contour and putting the entire fabric structure including the floor in tension.
The contents inside on the tent floor must be adequate to resist wind when on concrete or asphalt.
In San Francisco, I would think there is a progressive women’s group of volunteers that go round offering free tie downs
