COMPLETE THE SURVEY:
SMALL BUSINESS PETITION:
FINANCIAL LOSS MITIGATION

Many small businesses were hurt by APEC due to traffic rerouting, inability to get deliveries, security concerns, lack of foot traffic, and ultimately slow sales. 


A group of small business owners in SOMA are coming together and petitioning the city to create a mitigation fund to soften the blow.


Please fill-out this survey to help us advocate for getting some funding. BOS passed a resolution to set aside ~$10 million to help small business but the Mayor’s administration isn’t interested in releasing the money.


Feel free to pass this along to any small businesses that would be interested in helping us advocate for this initiative.
