  • Press Release *** Seven Businesses Approved by Sf Small Business
    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO LONDON N. BREED, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR For Immediate Release: Tuesday, September 11, 2018 Press Contact: Gloria Chan, (415) 554-6926, [email protected] *** PRESS RELEASE *** SEVEN BUSINESSES APPROVED BY SF SMALL BUSINESS COMMISSION FOR THE LEGACY BUSINESS REGISTRY San Francisco, CA —Seven businesses were unanimously approved by the San Francisco Small Business Commission for the Legacy Business Registry – Balboa Cafe, Chloe’s Café, FTC Skateboarding, Haight and Fillmore Whole Foods, Hayes Street Grill, Marina Supermarket and Pier 39 Ltd. Partnership. The Registry recognizes longstanding, community-serving businesses as valuable cultural assets to the city. In total, 142 small businesses are listed on the Legacy Business Registry. Balboa Cafe: 3199 Fillmore Street Nominated by Supervisor Catherine Stefani Balboa Cafe and Restaurant opened its doors in 1913 as a saloon. It has since transformed into a refined dining establishment commensurate to its Cow Hollow location, yet many original elements remain—the “Off Sale Liquors” signage and wood-paneled back bar. There is little information about its early ownership until the 1970s when Jack Hobday took over. In 1994, the business was purchased by former San Francisco Mayor and current California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom’s PlumpJack Group, now run by his sister Hilary Newsom and cousin Jeremy Scherer. Balboa Cafe is known for its vibrant atmosphere and menu staples, like the Balboa Burger and Chicken Paillard. The restaurant has operated continuously for 105 years at 3199 Fillmore Street on the corner of Fillmore and Greenwich. “San Francisco is a boom and bust town that is constantly going through change,” said Jeremy Scherer, Co- President of PlumpJack Group.

Meaningful. Memorable. These three words describe the evening as SFAR members and their guests took over SF City Hall on Saturday, January 6 for the Installation Gala honoring Kevin Birmingham, SFAR's 2018 President. If you didn't attend, you may be "green" with envy, as the event had a lovely Irish theme and City Hall never looked so good. The night started with a Bag Piper greeting guests as they arrived, setting the stage for the Irish themed evening to follow. After a photo op on the red carpet, friends and colleagues enjoyed a hosted cocktail reception with an Irish Trio of fiddle, banjo and guitar playing Irish Folk music, as they enjoyed savory delights and an assortment of adult beverages. The evening continued with dinner under the Rotunda, and guests were delighted as an Irish dance troop entertained guests as they enjoyed their meals. Past C.A.R. President, Jim Hamilton, served as the emcee for the evening, and kept the program running smoothly and with lots of humor as we transitioned from entertainment into the more serious Installation ceremonies. We were honored to have State Senator, Scott Wiener address the crowd and present Proclamations to our out-going and in-coming presidents. Other dignitaries who joined for the cocktail reception or dinner were State Board of Equalization Chair Fiona Ma; Assembly member David Chiu, Representing District 17; Acting Mayor London Breed; SF Assessor-Recorder Carmen Chu; SF Supervisor Jeff Sheehy, Representing District 8.

  • FY 2016-17 Annual Report
    FISCAL YEAR 2016 -2017 ANNUAL REPORT CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO COMMISSION AND DEPARTMENT ON THE STATUS OF WOMEN LETTER FROM THE COMMISSION PRESIDENT ANDREA SHORTER Dear Friends, While the past year has been incredibly eventful for the Commission, it has been overshadowed by the untimely and tragic loss of our Mayor Edwin M. Lee. He was a champion for gender equity, dating back to 2001 when he headed the Department of Public Works, one of the first city departments we selected for gender analysis. Back then, he convened the first meeting of the DPW Women’s Empowerment Group, an employee resource group that continues very energetically today. As Mayor, he made women’s empowerment a pillar of his “Shared Prosperity” agenda, launched the Cities for CEDAW Campaign in 2014 and hosted the first Bay Area Women’s Summit in 2016. Thanks to his launch speech captured on video and available on our website, there are over 60 cities engaged in the Cities for CEDAW Campaign, breathing new life to the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, an international bill of rights for women, that the U.S. has still not ratified, remaining the only industrialized U.N. member state not to do so. The Bay Area Women’s Summit, featuring such women leaders as Valerie Jarrett, Senior Advisor to President Barack Obama, and former U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios, attracted over 1200 women and their allies from all walks of life. Importantly, in 2017, Mayor Lee signed into law the first fully paid parental leave ordinance in the nation.
