SAN FRANCISCO — The state of California awarded $80 million to San Francisco out of the $500 million in revenue bonds the state issued through Senate Bill 863 to help expand jails after a federal court order to reduce prison populations.
SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted yesterday to seek $80 million in state funding, which the city would supplement with an additional $160 million, to pay for a new 384-bed jail. Board President London Breed supported the decision in the board’s 7-3 vote, but said that the jail needs to be smaller and cost less or she would not support it in the future.
