Otis White<p>Oakland CA has had its share of uncertainty lately. Its previous mayor was recalled by voters. An election to fill the mayor’s post was held last Tuesday with the results revealed … only on Friday evening. Perhaps not surprisingly, voters chose someone they knew over a less familiar alternative. Mayor Lee will have her work cut out for her. <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/barbara-lee-wins-oakland-mayoral-race-20281838.php" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl</span><span class="invisible">e/barbara-lee-wins-oakland-mayoral-race-20281838.php</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/mayors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mayors</span></a></p>

Otis White<p>It’s early days for S.F. Mayor Lurie, but he understands one of the things that's needed for turning around complex problems: You have to fix broken systems. In this case, the zoning and permitting of dense <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/housing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>housing</span></a> projects near transit stops. Announcing and achieving are different things, of course, but Lurie has a plan. Now, let’s see if he has follow-through. <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/lurie-housing-rezoning-plan-20255343.php" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">sfchronicle.com/sf/article/lur</span><span class="invisible">ie-housing-rezoning-plan-20255343.php</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/mayors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mayors</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/density" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>density</span></a></p>
Otis White<p>What's the difference between a highly successful mayor and … a meh mayor? The first one addresses systems problems based on a deep understanding of problems. The second one reacts to problems in the splashiest ways possible. Downtown crime? Let’s try horse patrols! No, cops on bikes! How about a kiosk? Hey, how about all three? <a href="https://denverite.com/2025/04/02/downtown-denver-safety-plan/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">denverite.com/2025/04/02/downt</span><span class="invisible">own-denver-safety-plan/</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/mayors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mayors</span></a></p>
Otis White<p>“We’ve lost our way”: New to the job, S.F. Mayor Lurie has the first requirement of leadership, which is a sense of purpose. When it comes to drug addicts, the goal should be to help them off their habits … not with their habits. Lurie is making small but important changes in how outreach teams do their work so team members can be counselors, not enablers. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/us/san-francisco-drug-supplies.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nytimes.com/2025/04/02/us/san-</span><span class="invisible">francisco-drug-supplies.html</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/mayors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mayors</span></a></p>
Otis White<p>You can start a good argument in NYC by asking … who was this city’s best mayor ever? (For the record, it was Mike Bloomberg.) But there would be little argument in Detroit. Most people agree it’s the current mayor, Mike Duggan, who literally turned the lights back during in his three terms in office.

Otis White<p>Two CA <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/mayors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mayors</span></a> are under attack for failing to take charge of big problems, though each has broad powers. So what’s up with L.A. Mayor Bass and S.D. Mayor Gloria? A theory: Both spent years as legislators and, for some reason, cannot learn to think like or act like executives. Well, maybe. But worth considering: Some of our most successful presidents spent time as legislators. Some of our worst didn’t. <a href="https://www.zocalopublicsquare.org/strong-mayors-los-angeles-san-diego-powerless/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">zocalopublicsquare.org/strong-</span><span class="invisible">mayors-los-angeles-san-diego-powerless/</span></a></p>
Otis White<p>“Is anyone running this city?” If you’re not squeamish, it’s fascinating to watch a mayor who just can’t do the job. First, his critics pile on. Then allies jump ship. There will be grand efforts to correct the mayor’s shortcomings that will fail. Finally … the political death watch. Are we talking about Chicago Mayor Johnson? Nope. S.D. Mayor Gloria. <a href="https://voiceofsandiego.org/2025/02/18/mayor-dismisses-embattled-coo-and-takes-reins-of-city-management/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">voiceofsandiego.org/2025/02/18</span><span class="invisible">/mayor-dismisses-embattled-coo-and-takes-reins-of-city-management/</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/mayors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mayors</span></a></p>
