San Francisco: A Vision in Green
By Gavin Newsom, SF Mayor, Mar 10, 2007
Providing the next generation of San Franciscans with a healthy and sustainable urban forest and clean and livable neighborhoods have been key goals of mine since I first became mayor. I am happy to report significant progress on both of these pledges.
Bridging the Digital Divide for all S.F.
By Gavin Newsom, SF Mayor, Feb 15, 2007
In my first State of the City address, I made the commitment to provide every San Franciscan access to free wireless Internet service. We have taken an important step in fulfilling that promise. The City and County of San Francisco has reached an agreement with Earthlink and its business partner Google to become the first major city in the country to offer free universal wireless Internet access throughout the entire City. In creating this public-private partnership, we will accomplish this at no cost to City taxpayers.
Safe Communities Equal Safe City
By Gavin Newsom, SF Mayor, Jan 16, 2007
In August of 2005, I launched a coordinated effort amongst City departments, law enforcement, the courts and the community to combat the high rate of violence plaguing San Francisco. Together, these efforts created new job opportunities for at risk youth and adults, advanced new strategies to combat gun and gang violence, and bolstered social services for families impacted by violence.
It’s All About the Neighborhoods
By Gavin Newsom, SF Mayor, Dec 14, 2006
I have always said that San Francisco is a city of vibrant and unique neighborhoods. It is the character of these neighborhoods and its residents that make our city one of the most interesting places to live and work. With this in mind, it is critical that we respect our neighborhoods, keep them clean, and care for them as the gems they are.
Keeping S.F. Clean Green: Can you Meet the Challenge?
By Gavin Newsom, SF Mayor, Nov 08, 2006
San Francisco is considered by many to be one of the greatest cities in America. Keeping our city clean and green is vital to maintaining this distinct honor. As Mayor, I am dedicated to working with businesses and communities to support innovative projects that will make San Francisco's streets and public spaces vibrant and healthy. I believe green and clean neighborhoods are essential to the quality of life, economic development, social fabric, and environmental health of San Francisco. Together, we can make San Francisco a clean and green city that residents are proud to call home and a city that keeps visitors coming back year after year.
