Tim E. Donnelly has been a resident of District 3 for 30 years and has worked as a residential property manager for the past 25 years. He said his impetus for running was increases in crime, traffic and homelessness.
“The break-ins are out of control and there are too many unstable individuals wandering our neighborhoods,” Donnelly said in his official statement. “I have never run for office, but can no longer remain idle while our quality of life degrades.”
His focus on neighborhood safety prioritizes greater police presence, addressing homelessness and restoring off-street parking to work against “increasing traffic, pollution and frustration, making our streets less safe.” Donnelly’s priorities also include rent control and building-height limits to reduce density.
On a lighter note, Donnelly also want to crack down on beer cheats: “Let’s get 16 full ounces when we order a pint!”

Aaron Peskin, the District 3 incumbent and a former board president, is seeking his third full term on the Board of Supervisors.
Peskin served from 2001-2009, and in November 2015 won the unexpired-term election over Julie Christensen, whom Mayor Ed Lee’s appointed to replace Supervisor David Chiu after he was elected to the state Assembly.
Peskin’s priorities have been focused on affordable housing (Proposition C on the 2015 ballot) and preventing loss of housing by the Academy of Art College through zoning enforcement and by Airbnb through complying with city law on short-term rentals. He has also worked on public and pedestrian safely, protecting small business, including those negatively affected by Super Bowl, and promoting fiscal responsibility, including “cracking down on bad real estate deals by the city.”
“My continued priorities as District 3 Supervisor are addressing our affordability crisis; protecting neighborhood safety and quality of life; preserving San Francisco’s diverse nature,” Peskin said in his candidate statement.
