This Thursday, the City will hold a public hearing on a proposal plan to start a weekly farmers’ market on Sundays in the heart of Glen Park village.
The City’s Interdepartmental Staff Committee on Traffic and Transportation, known affectionately among City bureaucrats as ISCOTT, will decide whether to issue a street-closure permit for the operation of a farmers’ market on Wilder Street, off of Diamond Street.
Plans call for the al fresco market to operate from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m on Sundays for a test period running from June 6 to Aug. 8.
Under the proposal,Wilder Street would be shut to traffic on Sundays from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. However, residents living at 53 Wilder St. would have access to their building from Carrie Street.
The ISCOTT meeting is scheduled for 9 a.m. Thursday at 1 South Van Ness Avenue, just south of Market Street, in Room 7080. The contact person is Cindy Shamban. She can be reached at 415-701-4683 or at cindy.shamban@sfmta.com.
