Supervisor Gordon Mar is optimistic about stepping back from City Hall.
After losing a hostile and tightly contested bid for reelection, one might assume that 2022 was Gordon Mar’s toughest year in office.
Great Highway to stay car-free on weekends through 2025 The San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted on a proposal by Supervisor Gordon Mar that would, for a three-year pilot program, maintain the car-free weekends on The Great Highway. Mar spoke to The Examiner as he packed up his office. He reflected on the accomplishments of his first and only term in office, the evolution of the Outer Sunset, and the contentious politics of the westside’s District 4.
“The election outcome , I really do feel like it was a result of broader trends and feelings in The City that were separate from my record of accomplishments,” Mar said.Mar did not support the recalls of either three school board members or of District Attorney Chesa Boudin, both of which received the overwhelming support of Sunset voters.
As he left office, he shepherded passage of a three-year pilot program that will keep the Great Highway closed to cars on the weekends. The highway has split safe streets activists and motorists, and Mar pitched his proposal as the best possible balance between the two camps, allowing car commuters easy travel on weekdays.
Long-term Sunset residents, especially, “just want to keep things the way they’ve been,” and began “feeling the need to be more aggressive in their advocacy.”
