Wait until the residents of Brisbane see the resolution that will be put before the San Francisco Board of Supervisors on Tuesday. It suggests that San Francisco ought to investigate the possibility of annexing the entire city of Brisbane.

That sound you heard was the town’s 4,000-plus residents simultaneously hitting the roof.

Brisbane has been under fire from housing advocates for a plan to develop Baylands, a 684-acre plot next to Highway 101, with millions of square feet of commercial space — but no housing.

A group of San Francisco advocates went to the Brisbane City Council meeting Thursday to encourage the panel to adopt a mixed-use plan, meaning a development with both housing and commercial/industrial use.

There was also some discussion among San Francisco movers and shakers, including the Chamber of Commerce’s Jim Lazarus, about whether it would be possible for either San Francisco or San Mateo County to annex the Baylands site. The board’s resolution takes the idea up a notch.

“I grant you, the notion of exploring annexing Brisbane is provocative,” said Supervisor Aaron Peskin, who is sponsoring the resolution with Supervisors Jane Kim and David Campos. “But, then again, the statements of the elected officials in Brisbane are provocative, too. What comes around, goes around.”

Brisbane Mayor Cliff Lentz has been trying to walk back his quote from last week in which he appeared to be saying that his city would green-light a lucrative commercial project and let San Francisco deal with the mess:

“There’s all this housing on the S.F. side,” Lentz was quoted as saying. “We’ll provide the commercial — S.F. will provide the housing.”

Lentz says he was only expressing what “some people” were saying, but he wouldn’t have been the first Brisbane official to take the attitude, “Keep moving, stranger.” After all, the Brisbane Planning Commission recommended Aug. 25 “that no housing be allowed on this site.”

In addition, a city-produced document on sustainability says, “There will be ample housing in the new developments planned across the border in San Francisco for those working in the Baylands who wish to live nearby.”

“It didn’t seem to be very neighborly,” Peskin said. “There’s a larger regional policy issue. San Francisco has been the leader in the creation of both market-rate and affordable housing. For Brisbane to shirk responsibility deserves a strong response.”

So if Brisbane thought this controversy was going away, it was mistaken. The City Council postponed a vote on the Baylands plan Thursday and may not take it up again until spring. That plan proposes more than 8 million square feet of commercial space — and zero housing.

“I think all of us need to protest that,” said San Mateo County Supervisor Adrienne Tissier, whose district includes Brisbane. “It’s easy to take all the revenue and not take any responsibility for the people.”

Traffic is a Dream, sort of: It’s October, when San Franciscans gear up their annual complaints about Salesforce clogging up the streets with its meetings. We just endured Oracle Open World, and Salesforce is holding its Dreamforce event this week.

Each year, Howard Street is closed to traffic and transformed into a pop-up village for Dreamforce and Oracle OpenWorld. But because Howard is a primary east-to-west corridor, the effect on transit can be gridlock. Cars coming up Third Street are often blocked by drivers turning in front of them off Howard.

However, this year the streets nearby seem less jammed. Part of the reason seems to be that two lanes of Howard are closed off. Cars are directed to turn right on Third and stay in the two right lanes. That means drivers coming up Third have the two left lanes for themselves.

I called the Municipal Transportation Agency to congratulate them on their new strategy. But spokesman Paul Rose said the same traffic-calming measures were used last year. So maybe we’re just getting better at October.

By the way, Dreamforce is expected to have 170,000 registered participants. As of Monday, a Dreamforce pass was selling for $1,799. And they were sold out.

Drag queens for Wiener: Supervisor Jane Kim got lots of attention for her martial-arts video. Now Scott Wiener, her opponent in the Nov. 8 election for state Senate, has come up with his own, very San Francisco, version.

Wiener has recruited some of the city’s most talented drag queen performers who sing and dance to a song about how Wiener “does the work.” You can see it at www.scottwiener.com/dothework.

As a campaign email says: “You won’t see this in Nebraska.”
