More money gone. Writing off $45,717 because they couldn't collect from misc debtors? Did anyone think to take them to court or take any action? Liens etc? So much waste.
This is from over 7 years ago. Thanks again Sue Digre. Do you even know what day it is?
Most of the individual amounts are so small that it is not worth the cost of collecting. There are collection companies that will by debt for pennies on the dollar but most of this debt is to old for them.
746 $45K of old accounting odds and ends is a drop in the pan compared to the money poured into Beach Blvd and Palmetto. There's your real waste. Ego-driven nonsense started in the Vreeland-era and continued right up to the present day under Nihart. You better adjust your tolerance for this stuff or you'll have a coronary when they find the backbone to write off the millions in redevelopment money.
Wow it looks like The Chamber got tossed a few crumbs by city council.

Why does Stephen Johnson get to run a for profit business in the Sanchez Art Center? This deadbeat has been getting way below market rents. His studio was in Rockaway by Rock N Robs.
Kick the deadbeat out! Make him pay market rents.
Why should the taxpayers subsidize this asshole.
Tribune had loan from waste-water fund to general fund on agenda?Have to watch agenda info,because Council provided little notice on sewer tax resolution.
817 City Council sets those rents. Always has. Guess he still looks like a good tenant to this council.
It does seem like everything associated with a city-owned building with taxpayer-subsidized rents should be public, ie, negotiations, use, rates, etc. Instead, this council works in their black hole.
Hey, where's #14? Was that the sewer fund loan to the general fund? Those inter-fund loans ought to be highlited in red. Wouldn't want to have them go through unnoticed by the public, now would we? That money in the sewer fund is going to go like shit through a goose.
1123, sorry I accidentally deleted your comment in posting. Comments continue to be made about the photography business of Stephen Johnson being subsidized at special civic rates. And Johnson's aggressive opposition to the civic Sanchez dog park, next to his civic studio location, does not endear him to dog owners. Such comments are not a reflection on the photography of Stephen Johnson. And it would be appreciated if 817 would use less targeted slang to replace language.
I don't know how full Sanchez is at the moment, but with so many artists being pushed out of SF, maybe Sanchez can advertise the available studio space.
Occupancy was not my question. My question is the city and taxpayers should not be subsidizing the rent of a for profit business in the Sanchez Art Center.
The Artists at the Art Center are the very people who helped bankrupt the city.
On August 7th, 2014 Therese qualified to be in the race for city council.
I don't care if the tenants are for-profit or non-profit and I don't care who they are as long as they pay market-rent for their space. Council after council has officially made it city policy to subsidize the arts in that facility--yes, even this lunkhead council while sitting on their 4 million dollar faux pas. Enough already! As a city we can't afford this gift. Raise the rents, advertise the vacancies in the art communities in SF, Marin, HMB, etc. and let's get serious. Using city facilities for political favors or for political revenge is vile, but we've got to be realistic about what we are and what we can afford as a city.
