Campaign themes

2016

Thornley's 2016 campaign website highlighted the following issues:

“

Housing That's Affordable and Available: San Francisco's housing crisis weighs crushingly on our neighborhoods, our families and our friends, threatening and displacing more and more of us, tearing at our communities and challenging our political response and engagement. Who gets to live in the Richmond District? And how do we protect what's real and authentic about the Richmond District in a dynamic growing city? Strengthen eviction and displacement protections, maintain existing rent-controlled homes Extend and protect workforce housing affordability through community land trusts, foundation housing, ADUs Create more new homes, at more levels of affordability, especially on rapid transit corridors like Geary Blvd Safe, Healthy Streets: We deserve neighborhoods with safe, inviting, walkable, bike-able streets, and we can have them. Walking and biking to school builds community, relieves traffic, and gets kids to school energized and ready to learn. Vision Zero – Eliminate fatalities and serious injuries on our streets by 2024 (sooner) Safe Routes to Every School (and Park, and Library) – Everyone should be able to walk to their neighborhood park, or get there by bike, safely and pleasantly Excellent Transit and Transportation: Thousands of District 1 neighbors already move by Muni – we need transit systems that are even more attractive and reliable for the future, and other practical transportation options, for local trips and across the region. Outstanding Geary transit serving a walkable shoppable livable Geary corridor Muni service as attractive and convenient as driving for many trips Bicycling as attractive and convenient as driving for most trips Strong, Reliable Infrastructure: We're a dynamic, growing city built on dunes and seismic fault lines, so we've got to be even smarter about our municipal infrastructure, to keep the essential machinery and framework of our city running safely and smoothly. Sustainable budgeting and funding for infrastructure – plan for resilient sufficient systems, efficient ongoing maintenance and operations, not constant catch-up on crumbling streets and sewers Complete Streets thinking and operations – coordinate agency efforts, spend a dollar once, win many benefits, make our neighborhoods stronger and healthier
