Local officials canceled an event scheduled for Wednesday in San Francisco’s Noe Valley Town Square to celebrate a single public toilet that will cost as much as $1.7 million to build and won’t be completed until 2025. This after a San Francisco Chronicle columnist called out the “mind-boggling” and “maddening” details of the project.
California Assemblyman Matt Haney who secured the $1.7 million funding from the state to install the toilet, told the outlet that he now considers the price tag “inexplicable.” more

That image looks like they are both rubbing one off.
What the hell was wrong with the sidewalks?
In days of old
When knights were bold
And toilets weren’t invented
You left your load
Upon the road
And walked away contented
In other words, just keep on doing what you’re DOING!
We don’t need no steenking toilets.
If you cut way back on their food the homeless shit less.
That’s some expensive shit.
Well, it is a 2-holer…
Will it have the sign telling the in-breads to not stand on the seat?

The problem with all these public toilet schemes, is by the time you make them disabled accessible, you can easily fit two sleeping bags side by side in them. Within 24 hours, the homeless shitheads have set up camp in them, and now by law, you have to go through the 30 day eviction process. That is, if the cops can even be bothered.
If you’re going to San Francisco
Be sure to poop upon the street
If you’re going to San Francisco
You’re gonna there’s freaky people you will meet
Man, what corruption. The tolet probably cost 1,000 bucks. The rest is kickbacks.
It is supposed to be done in 2025. This is California. Nothing done by the government happens on time or under budget. But even if it is done on time . . . what guarantee is there that San Francisco will still be there by that time?
For the sake of this comment, should I rename myself “Lost in Bureaucracy”?
The best line from the article:
a joint statement from the Rec and Parks Department and the Department of Public Works. The departments added in the statement, “While this isn’t the cheapest way to build, it reflects San Francisco’s values.”
Ya know you can get a rent-a-shitter for about $40 a week; right, SF? But go ahead with your “values”.
An architect and the Arts Commission to ensure the “project’s design is appropriate to its context in the urban environment, and that structures of the highest design quality reflect their civic stature.” What does that even mean? That the shit will be on the outside?
I was sure I remembered Reagan being Governor there, but now I’m second guessing myself.
San Fransicko in its entirety IS a putrid public toilet.
And yet the city of SF is complaining that 20 hrs for Mr. Beachmom to do the estimate for the new pier next to Fishermen’s wharf.
What a screwed up city.
I am guessing that the toilet will be trashed within a day or two.
Hey Portland, does this scandal look familiar?
