SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) Mayor London Breed announced Wednesday that all retail stores within San Francisco that have access to the street for pick-up and deliveries will be allowed to reopen on May 18.
Initially, the city was prepared to allow just florists, bookstores, cosmetics stores and a few others to reopen on Monday for pickup and delivery services.
During her daily coronavirus briefing, Breed announced she was expanding that order to any retail store that has direct access to the street.
The good news is that that (the limited openings) is still happening, she said. The even better news is we are able to extent this to all retail in San Francisco with a business that is actually, directly connected to the street. So what this means now for our city is incredible because we are talking about many of those small businesses in various neighborhoods where you see many of those shops that are closed, they will be able to open for curbside pickup and delivery. This will be incredible for the city.
