@teatimeadventur@davelu We had 2 yr + of sales data in the performance of the parklets. Though high, it'll generate great return. Our nicer parklets will seat guests more comfortably. 50k for 20 seats in SF is a good investment.
@teatimeadventur@davelu And even if we did 'offend' someone, you are ok with them making the bear spray threat? You think the rando who acid etched our window also wrote the text?
@davelu Insurance: I have a deductible to deal with the graffiti removal and likely replacement of plexiglass on our parklet. Given the circumstances in SF, it's harder and harder to get GL insurance. Our rate DOUBLED from last year.
@heathermirj@USDResponse@solvhealth Being reminded that you are working on this rollout makes me feel better about the bureaucracy, inefficiency, and incompetence of the 5th largest economy in the world.
When SF and @LondonBreed announce the closure of restaurants ahead of the state guidelines, I hope the city will help pay for severance for staff who's going to be let go. #whereisthehelp
Within 3 days, I thoroughly expect SF and Mayor @LondonBreed to announce ban of outdoor dining in SF with no immediate cash assistance. Asking for some friends... can you at least allow us to have Saturday night service?
Sitting here at @ateliercrenn in the replanning meeting - again - to address the indoor ban... Just after we started rehiring and now we have to say good bye. @LondonBreed I humbly for a waiver system so that some of us can reopen and keep these precious jobs.
@jure@meharpist@nytimes@nature Related note, do you have modeling scenarios if we limit capacity to 50 percent or 25 percent and provide the simulated results between diff POI categories? Thanks.
@jure@meharpist@nytimes@nature Great study and I am digging the interactive website. As a restauranteur... When you said that restaurants are 4x more - is that normalized to # of POIs or # of visitors? I can anticipate this stats being quoted widely.
@LondonBreed Why is the restaurant industry the only one being asked to roll back/provide further sacrifice and the tens of thousands of restaurant workers to be the only ones who will lose their jobs - there are no stimulus, no PPP, and certainty de minimus immediate assistance from SF
