District 7 candidates weigh in on revitalizing 9th Avenue
Briefly

As a small business owner myself, I understand the struggles store owners are going through on 9th Avenue. We need to start by helping empty storefronts turn into thriving businesses because increased foot traffic helps every business along the corridor. I will reach out to landlords of vacant spaces to hear from them how regulatory costs and City policies impact their rental term requirements. My goal will be to remove all possible government burdens, boost foot traffic, and thereby encourage more entrepreneurial activity that benefits everyone.
We are helping implement several ideas from the community to help increase foot traffic to the 9th and Irving. We installed a Flock camera at the corner to combat retail theft; the entrance to Golden Gate Park at 9th and Lincoln has gotten a facelift and will be open in two weeks, we are planning on murals, and wayfinding banners to direct visitors from the park to the corridor.
