*** STATEMENT***

 

SAN FRANCISCO, CA --- Today, a Safe Reopening Plan was announced to make sure San Francisco continues to slow down the spread of COVID-19 while resuming economic activities with modifications. It is expected that outdoor dining and in-store shopping at retail businesses will be allowed as soon as June 15th. Meanwhile, additional activities and businesses will resume in July and August. See more details here.

 

The Safe Reopening Plan was formulated by the Economic Recovery Task Force, a task force that was created by Mayor London N. Breed and Board of Supervisors President Norman Yee in early April to guide the City’s efforts through the COVID-19 recovery. The task force focuses on sustaining and reviving local businesses and employment, mitigating economic hardships, and building a resilient and equitable future. As the co-chair of the task force, Assessor Carmen Chu issued the following statement in response to the Safe Reopening Plan:

 

“San Francisco led the way with our public health response and we can lead the way again with a thoughtful and responsible approach to reopening. Through the task force, we heard from hundreds of San Franciscans on the need to balance our public health needs with our ability to make ends meet and today’s announcement provides a roadmap for all of us to plan and prepare for the future.”
