In a theatrical performance at Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting, Supervisor Connie Chan made hay over her car-free JFK Drive proposal, and the mayor called Chan’s comments ”not a responsible way” to decide the matter.

Something called the Ocean Beach Climate Change Adaptation Project could render nearly a mile of the Great Highway car-free, regardless of what happens in the broader car-free Great Highway debate.

A pilot program is bringing food trucks to the northbound lanes of the Great Highway on it’s car-free weekends, and they’ll be out this Saturday and Sunday.

The news is welcome to neighbors, whose streets were overwhelmed in recent weeks with beachgoers seeking parking.

If the Board of Supervisors agrees, expect another 12 years of music in Golden Gate Park.
