Perry is a lifelong San Franciscan and Verified Social Equity Applicant who grew up in the Bernal Dwellings Housing Project near our site, attended Phillip Burton High School, and more recently has become a leader at the Center for Juvenile Criminal Justice and the Success Center. He has partnered with the company I work for, MMD Shops, which has been running compliant and successful dispensaries in California for over 16 years. Both Perry and MMD are very excited to rehabilitate this long-vacant retail space and serve and support the community around it. We<U+2019>ve received dozens of support letters, including many from immediately around our proposed location. Perry has the support and respect of numerous community leaders. MMD has the operational know-how to help him, and the store succeed. Out of respect for your time, we won<U+2019>t bombard you with information now<U+2014>or commenters on Thursday<U+2014>but if you have any questions, please don<U+2019>t hesitate to email us, or call me anytime on my cell at 323- 868-6979. Attached is our brief Sponsors Statement Thank you. We look forward to seeing you Thursday. Sarah Dale Director of Public Affairs MMD Shops Sponsors Statement Social Equity Cannabis Retail project 4835 Mission Street Dear Planning Commissioners, Perry Jones and MMD Inc. are proud to present an overview of the proposed Social Equity retail cannabis project at 4835 Mission Street. Perry Jones is a 3rd generation San Franciscan. He grew up in the Bernal Dwellings Housing Project and attended Phillip Burton High school, close to the project site. While studying criminal justice on scholarship at San Francisco State University, he was convicted of a minor cannabis offense that resulted in him losing his scholarship. Instead of losing hope, Perry dedicated his life to helping Bay Area youth who were in similar situations as a case worker at the Center on Juvenile Criminal Justice as well as working with The Beat Within, Project Rebound and other non-profits. He also became an activist for cannabis social equity. Perry Jones is exactly who San Francisco<U+2019>s landmark Cannabis Social Equity Program was designed for. Over the past five years he has taken advantage of the support this program offers, enrolling in courses and workshops focused on business management and cannabis retail. Perry has partnered with MMD Inc., an established cannabis retailer that has 16 years of legal, compliant cannabis sales experience in California. With MMD<U+2019>s operational expertise, funding, and strong track record of community investment and Perry<U+2019>s deep ties to the community, we are confident this project will be successful. We have collected over 25 support cards and letters from our neighbors as of 9/16/22 with more coming. Perry has personally knocked on hundreds of doors to introduce himself and the project. He had conversations with everyone who has signed in support and has made himself available to discuss any questions or concerns. We are thrilled to have deep support from our closest neighbors. Our site is a 10-minute walk to the north or a 15-minute walk to the south to the nearest dispensary. Our location will provide equitable access for our neighborhood. This project will also enhance neighborhood safety by adding security cameras and live security that will monitor the area for loitering, litter, and public consumption. We will be accessible and accountable to our community. Thank you for your time. We are available to answer any questions.

There are already three cannabis stores located in a half mile radius to this location, all along Mission Street. Additionally, recent approvals for Cannabis Retail were granted for locations at 5801 Mission Street and at 4687 Mission Street, just less than 2 blocks away! There are other applications pending in the pipeline, such as the one at 4994 Mission Street. We object to this saturation of selling of cannabis in our neighborhood. We understand having businesses to create job opportunities and tax revenue for San Francisco are important and needed. However, this clustering of cannabis stores in our neighborhood creates disproportionate detrimental land use impacts on our district and residents. We already deal with open cannabis usage and are impacted by undesirable odors, loitering, and traffic congestion caused by existing cannabis stores. We live under constant fear and stress from rising crime rates throughout the city and in our neighborhood. As has been often reported, many businesses selling cannabis draw crimes and have been subject to shootings, break-ins, robberies and assaults. The Excelsior Outer Mission and Geneva Avenue area of San Francisco already experience many incidences of such criminal activities. The local Walgreens and other stores have closed due to the constant thefts and unsafe environments. We do not want to further worsen the conditions in our neighborhood with the crimes that can come with selling cannabis. Of particular concern, there are numerous schools and public playgrounds located close to the subject property. There were previous regulations requiring for cannabis stores to be at least 1,000 feet away from schools. That has been reduced to 600 feet, which is less than 2 blocks in distance! Three elementary schools are in a half mile radius, a childcare center is down the street within 500 feet, and Balboa High School is two blocks away, less than 1,000 feet in distance. Additionally, there are bus stops approximately 100 to 200 feet away from the premise where youths will be exposed to cannabis as they get off or wait to board buses to and from school. How can this be adequate protection to minimize cannabis access and exposure to our impressionable youth? There are many in the community who are fearful of having so many cannabis stores in our neighborhood. Many do not speak English well, or at all, and are fearful of voicing their concerns and objections due to possible retributions. There are many families with young children and disabled and elderly residents who need to and deserve to live in a healthy and safe community! We are disproportionately and negatively impacted by the concentrated numbers of already existing cannabis stores. There is need to reinstate the prior SF Board of Supervisors Ordinance to limit the number of cannabis retail in each district to three stores. We are also tax paying citizens and like other residents throughout San Francisco, we just want to live in our homes and neighborhood without fear for our personal and community safety. We implore the Planning Commission and other local representatives to do what is right by and for the citizens in this district and to keep us safe! We raise concerns for our personal and community safety and for youth access and exposure to cannabis. I again strongly object to the conditional authorization and to this project. Also, I strongly object to any further approvals for anymore cannabis retail businesses in our district!

I would like to express my concerns for the proposed project on 48356 Mission St. I have included news articles below that show the correlation of crime and pot dispensaries. I know in the letter that was sent out the business said there would be armed security guards to protect the area. I do not want my toddler to walk and see guns throughout Mission St. because a lot of these dispensaries are hiring armed security to protect their business. This neighborhood is improving for the better but I think by adding another pot dispensary it will not help the community. There is a stretch of pot dispensaries on Mission St. from Mt. Vernon to Silver street that is getting out of hand. It seems like there is a dispensary at every block. With the approval of 4994 Mission St./Italy (Basanova) and 4687 Mission St./Persia this is only adding to the issue. How many dispensaries are needed in a community? When is enough enough? Schools are located near this stretch of corridor: James Denman Middle School Balboa High School Child Day Care - 4750 Mission St. The proposed space is centrally located where kids will grab lunch or something to eat after school. It is located between Hawaiian Drive In, El Farolito and Subway. The last thing I want to see is another robbery where a shootout happens in a crowded area. Below are some articles that have shown the increase of robberies that occur at pot dispensaries. 1) https://sfstandard.com/business/cannabis-tax-dispensaries-burglaries/ Among the businesses affected in San Francisco were Mission Organic at 5258 Mission St., ConnectedSF at 5234 Mission St., The Green Cross at 4218 Mission St. and BASA Collective at 1326 Grove St. 3 of those businesses are within blocks of the proposed project. 2) https://www.sfexaminer.com/archives/bay-area-pot-shops-face-mob-robberies-get- little-help/article_a81532dd-3b2a-5eb8-8a39-c4b6ab6a68d2.html Bay Area pot shops face mob robberies, get little help | Archives | sfexaminer.com - San Francisco Examiner The boarded-up storefront at The Green Cross cannabis dispensary following a November robbery attempt.

My family lives here. This neighborhood is already disadvantaged to begin with lots of minorities. To put a cannabis store here will take advantage of the limited resources these people have and make the community worse. There is a grade schools, day care, and high school nearby and this will set a poor example in this area. There will be more people double parking as seen on the other 3 cannabis stores. It will make the traffic already worse. There are already 3 cannabis stores within 0.5 mile of this area and a fourth one is not needed in this community. We need a pharmacy, learning centers, and senior centers. There will be no benefit to the residents of this community and it will make the community worse. Sarah Turner Cell 4159880484show more
