Next year, the producer of Outside Lands wants to create a second, smaller concert series on the Polo Field a week after the music festival, which could be an added bonus for the city and businesses. However, not all neighbors are on par with the proposal.
The producer of Outside Lands wants to create a concert series at San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, but neighbors are divided over the proposal.Nearly every summer for the past 15 years, the Outside Lands music festival has taken over Golden Gate Park for a weekend in August, with seven stages worth of performers drawing in music lovers from across the state.
But San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan put the approval process on hold, until folks who live and work in the area could have a say. "The traffic is just not fair to the public or to the residents," Richard Rothman, a neighbor said at the same community meeting.For Steve Schneider, who has lived within blocks of Golden Gate Park for three decades, he worries about losing access to the park.
"Plus all of the workers, the unions, security, food vendors and all of the artists themselves," Scott said.
