San Francisco's Tenderloin Business Owners Say They Want Their Taxes Back

The Tenderloin Business Coalition, a group of mostly business owners and property owners said the root of the problem is the open-air drug dealing.The group said the city has “abandoned its commitment” to provide safety and they want a refund of all sales and property taxes paid this year.Saechao told NBC Bay Area that he plans to sign the petition.

The coalition is also demanding immediate removal of all drug dealers, ongoing and rigorous law enforcement and a meeting with San Francisco Mayor London Breed. San Francisco Supervisor Dean Preston has another concern and wrote in part: “I share the frustration of tenderloin residents and small businesses who often feel ignored by the city.”

In August, the Castro Merchants Association threatened to withhold taxes unless the city did something about similar problems.

Residents of San Francisco deserve reparations for the city's mismanagement. 💩
