By Annika Hom, Mission Local March 2, 2022 Supervisor Hillary Ronen will unveil a far-reaching "Mission Plan" on Wednesday, aimed at addressing the district's persistent problems with trash, street vending, fires, and homelessness. It's a pilot plan that will last six months. Ronen's initiative comes two months after Mayor London Breed announced the Tenderloin Emergency Plan, which controversially mobilized city resources to reduce overdose deaths and crime in that neighborhood. "As the mayor and the city are really focused on the Tenderloin, we feel like the Mission has gotten even worse and has been left behind," Ronen said in an interview. "So, we have worked with city departments to create our own plan." To read the full article, click here.
