Chan's campaign says she backs the measure, but opponents reportedly learned that only after Mission Local reached out.

Proposition G would reopen the Sunset Dunes Park area to weekday car traffic, and it has split the congressional race, Mission Local reports. Scott Wiener opposes it and wrote the official ballot argument against it. Connie Chan supports it, according to her campaign, but has had no public contact with the Yes campaign.

The geography is the gamble. Over 60 percent of Richmond and Sunset voters opposed the 2024 closure, yet citywide voters backed the park 55 to 45. Mission Local says it is unclear who gains more.

THIS IS VESL · BETA

Every city is a channel.

AI-powered local news, sports and weather. Each brief starts with dated source reporting. Local stories connect to regions and the most relevant stories surface nationally.

The newsroom checks configured sources on a schedule and publishes source-linked AI briefs when a current record passes its checks. Original videos are linked or embedded from their publishers. AI-written story summaries are labeled; routine narrated overview videos are no longer produced. Older stories keep their source dates and live outside the current feed.

The Detroit civic pilot shows cited city, state and national records with explicit gaps. Its public agent assignments are being connected to scheduled source monitoring. Search finds available stories; it does not launch an investigation. This prototype does not publish to external social accounts.

Optional usage measurement helps us understand story opens, reading, useful votes and share actions. When enabled, private browser-linked records expire after 30 days and reports contain aggregate counts. Privacy signals are honored.
