 Yea, tourists! Hey? Where are they? Last year San Francisco leaders looked forward to summer months and conventions to boost our fair city's coffers and to create local jobs, but the Hawaiian shirts and camo clothed guests never came in the droves we hoped for, costing the City some substantial dough.

 So what do you think, folks? Will San Francisco's sit/lie debate surpass, match, or fall short of the sanctuary policy's media hit count? Personally, it is still TBD in my book, but sit/lie just added two more press clips to its growing portfolio: Melissa Griffin takes on the issue for the second week in a row, and the Bay Area Reporter provides an assessment through an LGBT lense - and things aren't coming up roses.

 Supervisors Bevan Dufty and David Campos' co-sponsored resolution allowing a $157,000 loan to the San Francisco LGBT Community Center gets put on hold.
-
 Some members of the San Francisco Commission on Animal Control and Welfare are concerned that Recreation and Parks and the PUCs' newest employees, goats, will be harmed by city fencing. No. This is not a joke. San Francisco does, in fact, have nomadic goats in some open spaces to help with its gardening and upkeep - for less than minimal wage. (Don't get any funny ideas, people.)
-
 Mayor Newsom's plan to issue more than 17,000 pink slips to city workers so that they can be rehired for a shortened workweek of 37.5 hours is met with skepticism and concern by several members of the Board of Supervisors, including Supervisor Sean Elsbernd who frequently agrees with the Mayor's policy decisions. On the federal level, Congress deliberates issuing a $800 billion "Local Jobs for America" stimulus package for local municipalities in hopes of staving off cuts like these. The Bay Area hopes for a $100 billion piece of the pie. Come on, Congress. Big money, big money!

 Looks like Caltrain, BART, and Muni will get thrown a BRBB (Budget Relief Bond Bone) for infrastructure improvements, thanks to 2008 voters who approved Prop 1A. Remember that little measure for a high speed rail and... other stuff...?

 The Bay Area Reporter's weekly political column takes a look at gay pioneer Harvey Milk's famed camera shop in the Castro, the City's upcoming Harvey Milk Day and the Symphony's Black & White Ball (May 22: Save the Date, y'all), and supervisorial candidate updates out of District 8.
-
 The Examiner takes an in-depth look at the proposed development of Treasure Island, noting that the plans have leaned out not necessarily because of costs but, rather, because they resembled Canada.
-
 San Francisco, terrorized by utterly broken infrastructure? Sure - that's what some Supes warn. But with the right fixes, could we forestall a future filled with crater-filled streets, a theoretical water delivery system, and City offices closed on days that end in "Y"? Sure we could, but do we have the budget for it?
