Day 88 of the 16th St. Plaza crackdown: 'There are some positive happenings on 16th and Mission'
Briefly

Julia Toscano, co-director at the San Francisco Living Wage Coalition, advocates for better resource allocation in her community. Criticizing the deployment of an SFPD mobile unit stationed for 88 days, she argues it detracts from necessary street maintenance on 16th and Mission. Toscano highlights the important yet underappreciated work of local churches providing food for unhoused individuals. Her remarks suggest a need for more family-friendly and community-oriented solutions in a neighborhood facing infrastructural challenges.
Toscano emphasized the need for resources to focus on cleaning the streets and improving infrastructure rather than maintaining a mobile unit that lacks family friendliness.
She highlighted positive undercurrents in the community, particularly mentioning local churches that provide nighttime food for unhoused individuals, which often go unnoticed.
