Slow Sanchez has become an indispensable part of the Noe Valley neighborhood. It is a special space for residents, neighbors, and visitors. It creates community in a unique way and has brought together people who might not otherwise have made connections. I have personally been enriched by the experiences and friendships that have been made possible by the slow street.

I wholeheartedly support the MTA's plans to keep Sanchez a slow street and believe that appropriate safety measures and precautions will ensure that everyone can enjoy this space. Along with the residents of Sanchez Street, community leaders, and city agencies, I will do all I can to take care of this cherished neighborhood gem.
