      XPost: ba.politics, talk.politics.guns, alt.politics.usa.republican       XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, sac.politics       From: democrat-criminals@mail.house.gov              https://thatsviralnow.com/san-francisco-is-considering-a-bill-that-will-       make-it-illegal-for-stores-to-close/              The San Francisco Board of Supervisors is deliberating a potential policy       that would allow individuals to take legal action against grocery stores       that shut down abruptly. This proposed ordinance was introduced by       Supervisors Dean Preston and Aaron Peskin, and mandates that grocery       stores must give the city six months’ notice before closing.              Genuine Efforts       In addition, Additionally,              The stores are obligated to make genuine attempts to ensure continued       access to grocery stores in the area after they close, whether it is by       finding an alternative store, assisting residents in forming a       cooperative, or coming up with other solutions with the city for the local       community.              Notice Required       If the grocery store chooses to shut down without giving the required       notice,              People who are negatively impacted by the closure could have the right to       file legal action against the store for compensation.              Ordinance Emphasizes       Despite these, the provisions, the ordinance stresses that store owners       right to close their businesses,              Within this there are also exceptions to the six-month notice rule, such       as unforeseen circumstances like natural disasters.              City Authorities       Supervisor Preston has been advocating for this ordinance since January,       emphasizing the recent situation with Safeway in Fillmore that had planned       to close until city authorities inserted themselves to delay the closure.              The policy has been in existence for many years.              Policy       The board of supervisors passed a policy that was identical to this one In       1984, but it was vetoed by then-Mayor Dianne Feinstein.              At the time, Feinstein described the policy as “an unnecessary intrusion       of governmental regulatory authority.”              Ease       Preston has expressed that he his more at ease with the involvement of       this policy.              Executives Of Stores       During the 1980s,              Executives from grocery stores argued that imposing more procedures on       stores that are closing could deter them from opening to begin with.              Input From The Community       He told the San Francisco Chronicle in January,              “It was a good idea then, and it’s an even better idea now,” “We need       notice, we need transparency, community input, and a transition plan when       major neighborhood grocery stores plan to shut their doors.”              Flexibility       The exceptions outlined in the ordinance seemed to provide grocery stores       with enough flexibility to be able to comply with the law, even if they       don’t adhere to the six-month notice prior to closing.              It raises questions regarding the possibility of compensation individuals       could receive by suing a closed store.              Thorough Regulation       While the repercussions of this policy are still unknown,              It gives insight on the level of thorough regulation that San Francisco       politicians believe is necessary for their city.              Sources For Food       Likewise, residents impacted by grocery stores that are closing could       probably find alternative sources for food fairly quickly.              Competing grocery chains would independently make their own decisions on       whether they want to take over failed stores or not.              Store Owners       One might be under the assumption that grocery store owners could keep       their businesses open as long as they are continue to make a profit,              And not close the doors without a justified reason.              San Francisco       Preston and Peskin question the capability of San Franciscans to organize       themselves independently.              Their proposal is grounded in the belief that notable changes should       involve a significant amount of time for public process, and be backed up       with the threat of legal action. Ultimately to help avoid anyone making       impulsive decisions.              Challenging       The stringent procedures and regulations at the onset make it challenging       for businesses to launch and create a more significant impact when they       shut down.              New ventures       This approach mirrors how San Francisco typically regulates new ventures,       whether they are businesses, technologies, or residences. This is not a       coincidence.              Multiple Approvals       Regardless,              If initiating any activity requires multiple approvals and permits,       numerous approvals and permits, is it not equally reasonable for the city       to impose similar regulations on closures?                     --       We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.              No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.       Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.              Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden       fiasco, President Trump.              Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the       The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed       dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
