A collaborative effort involved police officers, Department of Works (DPW) workers, and a nonprofit to maintain cleanliness on Mission Street. Weekends often see unpermitted vending and drug use, but a coordinated response aimed to improve pedestrian conditions. By 1 p.m., the area appeared largely commercial with few disturbances. Aysing Solutions contracted a cleanup crew while BART crisis intervention workers monitored the plaza. Local workers were proactive in engaging with the community and addressing issues, underscoring city leadership's commitment to these problems.
"When he sees someone using a pipe on Mission Street, 'I ask if they could please relocate and keep moving,' said Ronnie Calderon, a worker from Aysing Solutions..."
"The mayor, he's had it with this, referring to Mayor Daniel Lurie and his focus on making the 16th and Mission Street corridors cleaner and safer for pedestrians."
