With an eye toward maintaining a sort of socioeconomic pact with residents of the northeast neighborhoods, the legislation that would restrict construction of new garages is just one step away from reality. A vote of approval by the Board of Supes would prohibit building parking garages in residential buildings in Chinatown, North Beach, and Telegraph Hill if they've had two or more "no fault" evictions in the past decade. (Typically, garages following evictions signal a move toward the higher end of the market, pushing out the poors.) [SF Examiner, previously]
