Meet UMNI: The Retired SF Muni Bus Getting a Second Life as a Roaming Speakeasy

“I don’t know what we’re gonna do with it. We gotta go look at it.”. Those were the words lifelong San Francisco resident Oliver Sellman said to his childhood friend Santiago Rollo after stumbling across a Muni bus for sale on Facebook Marketplace. The two made the spontaneous drive to Sacramento, using the time on the road to brainstorm ideas for what they could do with the bus. After batting around a few possibilities, they landed on one that stuck: What if we turned it into a mobile speakeasy? While they didn’t end up purchasing that particular bus, they held tightly onto the idea. They eventually found another retired Muni bus and teamed up with Marc Velten-Lomelin, who would help shape the project’s creative identity and bring the concept to life. Just like that, UMNI was born.

City’s homelessness agency weighs reinstatement of shelter-cap policy

Shelter stays in San Francisco could soon be limited to 90 days again as the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing considers ending a policy of unlimited stays that began during the COVID-19 pandemic. The department shared in October a draft of the new policy that proposed reimplementing a cap on shelter stays in an effort to move people through the pipeline out of shelter and into housing. The policy would take effect in March. A public comment period in which advocates and others could share their thoughts and concerns ended Monday, and the department will evaluate the feedback, according to a statement spokesperson Emily Cohen shared with The Examiner. “Shelter should be more than a safe place to sleep — it should be a pathway to stability and housing,” the statement said. “The proposed Shelter Engagement Policy is about strengthening that pathway by establishing clear expectations for shelter providers and guests to work together on service engagement, Coordinated Entry assessment, individual housing support plans, and making meaningful progress toward stable housing.” The final proposal is expected to be announced in December. Local homelessness advocates told The Examiner they have concerns — submitted during the comment period — about how
