San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced plans on Tuesday to institute a curfew in a part of the Tenderloin in order to help curb crime in the area, the Mayor's office confirmed. Breed will introduce legislation to the Board of Supervisors later today. The legislation would prohibit some retail businesses that sell prepackaged food or tobacco products from operating after midnight and before 5 a.m.
The chunk of Tenderloin that would be impacted by the legislation includes the area between O'Farrell and McAllister streets and from Polk to Jones streets. The proposed 20-square-block area can be seen in the map below:Every hour that a store is open in violation of the ordinance will earn the business an administrative citation and a fine of up to $1,000. Warnings will be offered for each hour after the initial violation, but there is no maximum number of fines.
