Rules and regulations for San Diego street vendors who set up shop along downtown streets, city shorelines and other public places could become more strict.
Some downtown business owners say without enforcement, all the laws on the books won’t solve the problem. Licensed food vendor Peter Soto and his family are literally fighting to keep their business alive.
“They slapped the phone out of my wife’s hand then they hit my oldest son with a spatula. That was it. All the gloves come off then,” Soto said. “It just sets a tone. This is not the place to be. This is not a place to dine. It takes away from the class of the Gaslamp,“ Arj said. Downtown dweller Amee Gilliatt shares the sidewalks with vendors and she admits it can get crowded, but says changes to the current ordinance seem heavy-handed.
