ah. Yes that’s an issue.

My biggest lament is the pave over of the external front setback (yard), as this is the really destructive practice on s large scale. When the practice becomes widespread, The loss of soil filter really does harm to the infrastructure. This could be inspected with a simple drive by. Sf actually does enforce this on a complaint driven basis with a fine, though there’s a backlog and a quick drive through many sf neighborhoods will suggest little to no enforcement.

Entering someone’s home is a big deal. Ideally there would be strong cause and very limited scope.

On a related note, I do think that if you Airbnb, you’ve left the realm of home and entered the realm of commercial property subject to audit for public safety.
