Comment on SF Zoning Department rules that Workshop Cafe is an office, forcing it to close [pdf]parent

Comments

Why does a business need to appease one agency or another for the privilege of operating? If it’s dangerous to have them in that location they should be prohibited - if it isn’t, they should be allowed to operate their business without preconditions. The purpose of zoning should be to minimize actual harm, not micromanage the local economy.

That is the point of zoning. If every coffee shop became paid only, there would be no coffee shops and the financial district would be a dead zone of offices.

It isn't a micromanage, it is the intended feature of zoning.
