His wife also lost her Mercedes, and his garage has been forced to be closed on and off since Dec. 31,"It's been a horrible situation," Alioto said. Alioto said much of the blame should fall on San Francisco's Public Works, which oversees the city's storm drainage system.For the last 15 or 20 years, Alioto said city crews have cleaned out the storm drains in his neighborhood every fall with massive vacuums – a practice he said stopped three years ago during the pandemic. KTVU reached out to Public Works and the San Francisco Utilities Commission but did not immediately hear back from either agency.
