While we’re on the subject, There’s a hearing Thursday in Room 250 at City Hall — said to be 5 p.m. but the whole agenda starts mid-morning — on the Mayor’s proposal to take over the perfectly good Heart of the City (UN Plaza) Farmer’s Market from its nonprofit managers and subject it to the city Department of Real Estate — which will no doubt run it into the ground, overcharge for stalls, hire too much security, make the place too fancy for the mere sale of fresh vegetables, put a stop to the current mingling of social classes, and turn it into ersatz froufrou for tourists. See http://www.sfgov.org/site/bdsupvrs_page.asp?id=82574 Item 9.
Even the Chronicle sees the Mayor is wrong on this one:

I know there are bigger issues at stake this week but show up for the hearing if you can, OK?
