More than 100 vendors, restaurant owners and other advocates took over the steps of City Hall on a rainy Tuesday morning, calling for a major overhaul of the city’s longstanding policies on street vending.
Activists from groups including the Street Vendor Project, elected officials and street-vendor supporters made sure that their voices were heard on May 6 to advance the Street Vendor Reform Package, which includes Intro 431, a bill that would increase the number of food vendor licenses and general vendor licenses available each year for five years.
