Officials, residents say, 'No,' to redistricting

“In an age where we are so intensely concerned about cultural influences and desire to preserve and maintain them in order that our society might grow and mature in a more secure manner, and in an age where economic interests are becoming ever more important to the vitality and sustainability of community interests, the proposed split in this rural area effectively impairs those influences and interests,” he read from his letter. “The concerns that are vital to our effectiveness as a city and county will be grossly unrepresented.” According to a press release on the CCRC’s website, the second draft district maps are due to be released July 12. The deadline for final maps to be completed is Aug. 15.

UPDATE:

County Clerk Collene Setzer said her office has received calls that express confusion about how to submit comments about the proposed maps.

San Francisco Named 'Greenest' City in North ... - California Newswire

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. /California Newswire/ — S.F. Mayor Edwin M. Lee on Thursday (June 30) announced that San Francisco has received the distinction as the “greenest” city in North America in the first North American Green Cities Index. Announced at the 2011 Aspen Ideas Festival, San Francisco was ranked ahead of New York, Seattle, Denver and Boston as the top five “greenest” U.S. cities. The research study conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and commissioned by Siemens assesses and compares 27 major U.S. and Canadian cities on environmental performance and policies across nine categories – CO2 emissions, energy, land use, buildings, transport, water, waste, air quality and environmental governance.

“It’s certainly an honor for San Francisco to be named the ‘greenest’ city in North America, and it’s great to get recognition for the good work San Franciscans have done,” said Mayor Lee. “San Francisco is committed to working toward a greener, healthier future for the City, and I think there’s nowhere else on earth where you will find more environmentally involved residents, businesses and visitors than in San Francisco.”

“The Green Cities Index demonstrates that America’s cities are the driving force behind the nation’s sustainability efforts,” said Siemens Corp President/CEO Eric Spiegel. “Despite the fact that we do not have a federal climate policy in the United States—and no federal carbon standard—21 of the 27 cities in the index have already set their own carbon reduction targets. Cities are creating comprehensive sustainability plans, utilizing current technology and proving everyday that we don’t have to wait to create a more sustainable future.”

San Francisco ranked first overall in the Index due to an impressive performance across the board, with a top five ranking in six of its nine categories. San Francisco’s strongest area is waste, where it led the pack with efforts such as being the first U.S. city to mandate composting and recycling for residents, food establishments and events in 2009. The city also claimed second place in buildings, transport and air, bolstered by strong green building and energy efficiency building standards, the second longest public transport network, and low levels of all pollutants measured in the Index.

“San Francisco’s sustainability programs deliver on multiple levels simultaneously,” said Environment Director Melanie Nutter. “They need to be good for the environment, but in order to have community-wide impact, they also have to address the economic needs of individuals, improve the local economy, and reverse social inequalities. You can see that commitment in play from our recycling and toxics reduction programs to our all-out effort to shut down gas-burning power plants operating within city limits.
