Day 43 of shelter-in-place. Only 939 homeless San Franciscans are in hotel rooms. There are still 30,000 vacant hotel rooms. And the City is currently paying for 1,244 hotel rooms that they are leaving completely empty.

SF is paying ~$6k/month per person for hotel room + meals (not accounting for the cost of city labor for supervision), facing a $1.7 billion budget shortfall, and will have an even larger homeless pop *even before* eviction protections are lifted
We have to get real, here. If SF doesn't effectively cooperate with the surrounding region to manage the safety + needs of the homeless in a more homogenous & sustainable manner, people will continue to travel to wherever the most generous services are; it's the smart thing to do

Don’t fall for the mayor’s latest distraction. There is a database of people the city manages. Don’t be fearful that flocks of new arrivals are coming for rooms. The rooms are being offered to people in the city’s database only. She is creating new distractions everyday - ask why
-
I mean I and many others don't know that they're looking at the database. If I was homeless might as well move to San Francisco since they're offering services and you'll get something anyway.
