Fall print edition on sale — $1
The special section this issue: a team project on the broken San Francisco budgeting process and ways to improve it. Angela Hart reports that in a time of fiscal austerity, many departments are ignoring audits that could save millions of dollars — including Muni, which was $20 million overbudget for overtime in the first month of the fiscal year. Michael Levitin reports on the rising trend of “participatory budgeting.”
Back issues of No. 1, 2 & 3 are also available. The Spring edition featured an extensive report on the woes of Bay Area news media, drawing from an original survey of more than 700 journalists. The fall 2010 edition included a report on Muni’s elusive quest for on-time service, a series of reports on the side effects of medical marijuana and updates on how sea level rise will affect the Bay. Also a creative choose-your-own-adventure full-page graphical feature on the future of Pier 70 redevelopment. See the front page (PDF). The Summer 2010 print edition featured a report about the redevelopment of Treasure Island, an exposé on the sale of questionable gemstones at Macy's and a map of the vacant and abandoned properties in the city.
