  • Club Permits
    Club Permits Report of the 1999-2000 San Francisco Civil Grand Jury SUMMARY Many of San Francisco's dance clubs are located in San Francisco's South of Market (SOMA) area, which is policed by the Southern District station of the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD). All clubs operate under permits issued by the SFPD. In recent years, the Southern District station has acted to suspend and/or terminate a number of these club operating permits for a variety of incidents ranging from drug use and dealing inside of clubs to theft of property such as cell phones and excessive noise. The efforts of the Southern District to rein in the clubs became publicly controversial in July of 1999 when the SFPD sought the suspension of the operating permits of the City's largest dance club, Ten 15 Folsom, for negligent management. [1] This report is the result of the Civil Grand Jury's investigation of the SFPD's club permitting process, which has been criticized as being unfair to club owners. Based upon that investigation, the Civil Grand Jury recommends a reconsideration of the permit process to ensure equal treatment of applicants and permit holders, while providing appropriate penalties for clubs that pose public health and safety concerns. BACKGROUND A club owner must have several permits to operate a club: a Place of Entertainment permit, a Dance Hall Keeper permit, a Cabaret permit, and, if the club is to remain open after 2 a.m., an Extended-Hours or After-Hours permit. San Francisco is the only jurisdiction in the Bay Area that issues extended-hours and after-hours entertainment permits.

    PERSONAL NARRATIVES: DISCOVERING SAN FRANCISCO’S CHANGING SPACES FOR QUEER WOMEN A Thesis submitted to the faculty of San Francisco State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree Master of Arts In Geography by Eliza Jane Bailey San Francisco, California August 2021 Copyright by Eliza Jane Bailey 2021 Certification of Approval I certify that I have read Personal Narratives: Discovering San Francisco’s Changing Spaces for Queer Women by Eliza Jane Bailey, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts in Geography at San Francisco State University. Nancy Wilkinson, Ph.D. Professor, Thesis Committee Chair Courtney Donovan, Ph.D. Associate Professor Personal Narratives: Discovering San Francisco’s Changing Spaces for Queer Women Eliza Jane Bailey San Francisco, California 2021 Between the 1960s to the late 1980s, lesbian/dyke bars, nightclubs, and cafés (BNCs) thrived in San Francisco. The 1990s brought a significant decline in lesbian-targeted businesses worldwide, and San Francisco’s last lesbian/dyke BNC for 18 years, The Lexington Club, closed in 2015. This decline in lesbian-oriented businesses could be due to many factors; common assumptions include finances, societal acceptance of queerness, and an increase in queer resources providing women with expanding social networks. To gain a clearer understanding of the city’s once-thriving lesbian/dyke BNCs, why they mattered, and why they have disappeared, this study used in-depth, open-ended interviews with queer women, non-binary, and transgender individuals who have lived in San Francisco and have socialized at queer BNCs.

  • Special Argonaut Edition Journal of San Francisco Historical Society “Tell Me How a City Takes Its Pleasure and I Will Tell You the Character of Its People.”
    SAN FRANCISCO at Play! Special ARGONAUT Edition JOURNAL OF SAN FRANCISCO HISTORICAL SOCIETY “Tell me how a city takes its pleasure and I will tell you the character of its people.” SAN FRANCISCO AT PLAY! Since the COVID-19 shutdown, San Franciscans have been deprived of one of our favorite activities—FUN around town. With restaurants, bars, nightclubs, and parks closed for the time being, we can only recall our favorite places and pastimes with a wistful smile and look forward to the eventual restoration of our city’s thriving social life. This Special Edition of The Argonaut takes a nostalgic look back in time at some of the unique, lively, sometimes bawdy, one-of-a-kind San Francisco experiences we once treasured with frequency and abandon—and, perhaps, took for granted. HERE ARE THE FEATURES YOU’LL FIND IN THIS ISSUE: • San Francisco’s Wonderous Drink, Pisco Punch by Paul Scholten – Vol. 8 No.2 (Fall 1997) This classic San Francisco cocktail, said to have been invented in the Bank Exchange Saloon, proves the truth of this old adage: “One is just right; two is too many; three is not enough.” • The Chutes: San Francisco’s Unique Destination for Amusement by John Freeman – Vol. 14. No. 2 (Winter 2003) Who knew gravity could be so fun? Find out why people once flocked to an unusual form of amusement in a neighborhood now called “the Haight.” • A Toast to Paoli’s by Deanna Paoli Gumina – Vol. 25 No. 2 (Winter 2014) Written by the daughter of Paoli’s founders, this article celebrates the iconic, elegant bar and supper club that once graced Montgomery Street and fed the city’s appetite for “continental cuisine.” Some recipes from Paoli’s menu are included.

  • Slim's Historical Narrative
    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE FEBRUARY 26, 2018 SLIM’S Application No.: LBR-2015-16-068 Business Name: Slim’s Business Address: 333 11th Street District: District 6 Applicant: Dennis Juarez, Vice-President, Secretary Nomination Date: September 1, 2016 Nominated By: Supervisor Jane Kim Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Slimʹs is a live music nightclub opened in 1988 by R&B artist Boz Scaggs. The current ownership consists of 17 individuals in a corporate structure. The business has been located on 11th Street in the South of Market neighborhood since its inception in 1988. When Slim’s first opened, the majority of musical acts were of the R&B and Blues varieties, however currently it offers all types of music including Punk, Metal, Hip‐Hop, and Folk, catering to a large variety of tastes. Originally, Slim’s was able to keep its windows open and let the music ring throughout the neighborhood, however, new developments in the SoMa neighborhood have made this less of a possibility. Despite this, Slim’s continues to be a longstanding venue in the neighborhood as it changes around it. Slim’s has been an active member of the 11th Street community since its opening. Slim’s hosts benefits and local club operator gatherings at its location, and has catered to local activists, politicians, and community outreach meetings with the police department as well. Its staff has always been heavily made up of San Franciscans living in the local community who are dedicated to the music scene that is hosted at Slim’s.
