San Francisco Supervisor Joel Engardio was recalled Tuesday after converting a coastal highway into a car-free park, despite resident opposition. Engardio, who supported previous recalls of school board members and the district attorney, conceded the vote but defended the park, Sunset Dunes, as beneficial. The recall reflects San Francisco's ongoing political shifts and tensions over balancing environmental goals with residents' needs, particularly concerning car access in the Sunset district. Mayor Daniel Lurie will appoint Engardio's replacement.
