A copy of said resolution is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in File No. 240932. Section 2. General Findings. (a) Over the years, a number of craft breweries, wineries, and distilleries have operated within the Bayview neighborhood. These businesses are part of a broader tradition of local manufacturing. They are also an important part of the local food and beverage ecosystem, producing products for sale on their premises, as well as in restaurants, bars, retail markets, and other establishments. (b) The Third Street Alcohol Restricted Use District currently prohibits the establishment of new beer and wine bars. (c) Bars serving beer and wine can add to the variety of nightlife offerings in a neighborhood commercial district, filling vacant storefronts and providing additional vibrancy to benefit a corridor. (d) Enabling manufacturers within the neighborhood to launch new beer and wine bars will create new opportunities for small businesses along Third Street, and could attract additional alcohol manufacturers.
