Committee adopts amendments and sets one‑week continuance for shared‑spaces permit extension
Summary
Supervisors advanced amendments to extend pandemic shared‑spaces permits and to limit enforcement to disability access and life‑safety violations, and voted to continue the item one week so a substantive amendment (extension to March 31, 2023) can be finalized with City Attorney review.
The committee considered an ordinance to extend pandemic shared‑spaces (parklet/patio) permits and to suspend most fines and violations for shared‑space requirements until March 31, 2023, except for disability access and life‑safety violations.
Sponsor Supervisor Paskin described multiple non‑substantive edits and noted one substantive change — extending permit expiration from July 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023 — that would require a one‑week continuance for City Attorney review. Shared‑spaces program staff described coordination practices for addressing safety and abandonment and the city’s current authority to remove abandoned parklets when sponsors are unreachable. Supervisors agreed to the request for a one‑week continuance, adopted the non‑substantive amendments on the record, and voted to continue the ordinance for further drafting with the requested continuance.
The motion to adopt edits and continue the item passed unanimously.
