SF District 2 supervisor, electoral rival differ starkly on upzone plan
The June electoral battle to represent District 2 on the Board of Supervisors might come down to one issue: the Family Zoning plan that The City adopted in December aiming to promote denser residential development to meet state mandates, largely in northern and western neighborhoods.
Current Supervisor Stephen Sherrill — who was appointed to fill a vacant seat by former Mayor London Breed in December 2024 — unabashedly touts his vote in favor of the upzoning plan, which was championed by Mayor Daniel Lurie. He said in an interview that the plan can help make The City more affordable to many, and more inviting to families.
“I’m incredibly proud of my work on the Family Zoning Plan,” said Sherrill, who prior to his appointment as supervisor had been director of the Mayor’s Office of Innovation.
“There’s no question that we have a housing crisis here in San Francisco," said Sherrill, who has Lurie’s endorsement in the race. “We have to expand the opportunity to build housing — and zoning is about opportunity.”
