SAN FRANCISCO
Lee Heidhues 12.4.2024
The arrogance of Connie Chan is breath taking in piously claiming “She will invite proponents of of Prop. K to discuss if there is room for compromise.“
All San Franciscans who care about the environment and people’s democracy need to keep a vigilant eye on Supervisor Connie Chan.
This is the local ambitious politician who drove to victory as an environmentalist four years ago. Then proceeded to stiff the “progressives” who foisted her into office by 125 votes. Becoming the most car-centric and anti-environmental elected official in San Francisco.
Connie Chan’s hypocrisy is mind boggling.
It’s obvious that just reelected Supervisor Connie Chan has forgotten who won the citywide vote creating Great Highway Park by with a 55 percent majority.
Connie’s comment that she “will hold proponents accountable” flies in the face of reality.
Connie should be telling the opponents of Prop. K to stand down and shut up.
The people Connie should hold “accountable” are the screaming cadres of entitled motorists, a main prop in her successful reelection effort. Connie needs to tell these whiners to accept the will of the 55 percent majority. Connie has catered and bowed to the motorists since the day she took office as a Supervisor in January 2021.
Great Highway Park is coming. Soon. The message to Prop K opponents is simple. Deal with It.
The citizens of San Francisco cannot ever forget that it was Supervisor Connie Chan who has opposed Great Highway Park ever since it was closed to cars in spring 2020.
The citizens of San Francisco cannot ever forget that it was Supervisor Connie Chan who almost single handedly destroy JFK Promenade in Golden Gate Park. It’s a documented record that Connie Chan met with the lobbyist for the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco numerous times in their nearly million dollar effort to destroy JFK Promenade.
