The San Francisco City Council voted on Oct. 3 to approve a plan extending the lease on a safe parking site at Candlestick Point, south of downtown, for 35 vehicles and those living in them at a cost of nearly $13 million over two years, with residents receiving access to meals, wi-fi, and laundry services.

Legislative analysts, in a report, recommended the extension but suggested that the council explore less-expensive options next year.
