We also replaced rotted beadboard with new cedar beadboard, as well as an ugly light fixture.

When we bought the house, it had an ugly 1950ish door. We've been very happy with this replacement.

A candidate for alderman asked me to provide them with background reading on housing, and it turned into quite a list! I enjoyed putting it together, so I thought I'd also share it here. I've organized into three categories: describing the problem, describing solutions, and partnership solutions 🧵

That's a help but I doubt that they'll put a rack within a useful distance from my house, which is one of my non-station destinations.

If @divvybikes.bsky.social is limited to authorized stations, racks and adjacent overflow areas, it becomes mostly useless in lower density areas - most of south and west sides. Many of my trips in Beverly start or end at non-station locations. #bikechi

Not a silly question at all. In my city neighborhood, some grid sections rarely have outages and others have several outages per year that could last from several hours to a few days. Friends w/solar & battery storage have it made. Expensive project but it's helped a few times already.

@warrenjwells.bsky.social I really hope that enough people have the sense to vote for funding transit and avoiding disastrous transit cuts. I'm so glad that we were able to keep transit funded in IL. www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

Voters are split on whether or not to save Bay Area public transit

Only 48% of respondents said they would vote for the tax measure.

it is very cool (read: very not cool) that "What if the entire regional economy immediately exploded?" is a ballot measure in the bay area because we are in the 'touching the hot stove' era of american history. if you live in the bay area you should vote for the regional transit measure.

The ballot initiative would raise the sales tax rate by 0.5 percentage points in San Mateo, Santa Clara, Contra Costa and Alameda counties and by 1 percentage point in San Francisco, and is expected to generate roughly $980 million annually for the next 14 years to sustain bus, train, metro and ferry lines.

Many of the region’s transit agencies have already proposed contingency plans if the measure fails. BART said it would likely have to end service at 9 p.m. instead of at midnight, reduce train frequencies to 30 minutes and move from five-line to three-line service outside of peak commute hours. Caltrain has proposed eliminating weekend services, closing more than a third of stations and ending operations around 9 p.m. instead of 1 a.m. AC Transit is looking at reducing service by 16%, while Muni said it could eliminate up to 20 routes, cut service by at least 30% and end regular evening service.

The fiscal cliff facing transit agencies was triggered by the decline in ridership due to the pandemic and hit agencies heavily dependent on fare revenues, like BART, the hardest.

SPUR, a nonprofit policy think tank sponsoring the measure, released a report last month that found that if the measure and San Francisco’s Proposition H fail, traffic delays on the Bay Bridge could increase by 33 minutes heading west in the morning and 43 minutes heading east in the evening. Caldecott Tunnel traffic could see delays of an additional 20 minutes in the morning and 27 minutes during the evening commute. Congestion could also worsen along Interstate 580, Interstate 680 and U.S. 101, the report found.

We're looking for any picnic benches or seating you may no longer need. They'll be temporarily relocated to the Cortland Bridge. We can pick them up from you, and we'll give them a fresh coat of paint. Any lead is appreciated.

Yep, that's pretty much what it does for most of the city. Since I live far from the marathon route, I tend to stay far from it unless I'm going to cheer someone on.

@leniann.bsky.social @the48thward.bsky.social Could the cops please not do this? Especially when they could turn around and look at the intersection RIGHT THERE and see drivers blocking the box and/or running the red light on nearly every light cycle.

It varies a lot by street and neighborhood. Some sidewalks are more than wide enough. Some are way too narrow for the volume of ped traffic. Many are somewhere in between.
