Residents of San Francisco have a wonderful resource for discovering the history of their home. In this repodcast, then SF City Assessor, Carmen Chu joins the POD to discuss the photos and historical records available to the public, and an exciting project with the library.

Carmen Chu is San Francisco’s new City Administrator, which means she is stepping in to a position with wide-ranging and extensive responsibilities — her office comprises more than 25 departments and programs — at a time when the city is under pressure to address the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic, get residents and workers vaccinated, balance the budget and to address a corruption scandal. Mayor London Breed appointed Chu to the post after her predecessor Naomi Kelly resigned following corruption charges against Kelly’s husband, another city department head. Chu, who had been the city’s Assessor-Recorder since 2013, discusses her plans for charting a path forward in difficult times.
