The state density bonus reduces parking minimums for the development by up to 50% https://sfplanning.org/sites/default/files/forms/StateAnalyzed_SupplementalApplication.pdf

I enjoy the implication that it IS important to you that they are able to live in this highly desirable and expensive city (that perhaps they were born in. I don’t know)

So why IS it important to you, and to the health of a city, to have an economically diverse population?

In reply to katya george.

But what else can you reasonably expect? So-called “affordable housing” is really subsidized housing. In other words your rent or mortgage is partly paid by other SF residents.

So why is it so important to us that you are able to live in a highly desirable and expensive city that you clearly cannot afford?

Excellent news. Also one more reason to revive the prospect of an infill 30th St Mission BART station, an excellent value for money with a price per rider far lower than BART’s recent suburban extensions. It should have been built when the idea was studied 20 years ago, but the second best time is now.

Why all the parking? There are lots of buses on that street. Instead, the could build more units and have some green space or garden plots. Parking adds 10s of thousands in expense for each unit.

Affordable housing doesn’t work for those who need it. You enter a lottery ana wait for years to even qualify, then you can’t afford it if you’re disabled or poor. The average apt is 330 square feet and appx $1500. This is too much of you’re living on $28,000 yearly…

The story is confusing implying that 3300 Mission was razed in a fire. It was damaged and appears to be under some kind of reconstruction.
