Well, Karma showed up...
Bull.! Rather than paying the city and paying for the loss due to theft for six months, use that money and hire a good lawyer (that may be a misnomer) and make them pay for anything and everything you can think of..
The city doesn't own the property or the business..
Change the name so it does not hurt your brand, don’t restock, change hours so you are only open 30 minutes per day. Go Galt.

In fairness, it got even worse since Karmala Harris left.
But then again, the communists know that it will take forever for some poor guy who refuses to comply to make it's way to SCOTUS. By then, he's financially ruined beyond repair.
I’d put my notice in now regardless of condition.
So basically, the stores are threatened with jail if they don’t remain open so the thieves, who are not jailed, can continue to steal.
Hollywood couldn’t make this up.
How would they enforce this?
Bring back Freedom of Association. Let stores put up signs saying, “Due to theft, only whites and asians are allowed entry.”
No different from all these banks that refuse service to conservatives.
In other news, SF has decided to fine everyone who refuses to open a business in their city.
Lol.
Point Two. All industrial, commercial, manufacturing and business establishments of any nature whatsoever shall henceforth remain in operation, and the owners of such establishments shall not quit nor leave nor retire, nor close, sell or transfer their business, under penalty of the nationalization of their establishment and of any and all of their property.
Can’t have a Grocery Protection Act when nobody can afford to buy it and it rots.
“stores that try to leave San Francisco would have to provide the city with six months’ notice, allowing city leaders time to look for a replacement retail tenant.”
And how many Replacements are going to show up for this, knowing when they start to hemorrhage money they are stuck doing it for 6 months.
OK, so the stores can cut their losses by announcing closure in 6 months, lay off most staff, cut store hours, eliminate frozen & fresh meat sections, & fail to restock shelves.
Sounds like the Soviet grocery store that they so richly deserve.
Holy carp! They read FR and took it as a suggestion!!!
