“Yes. Preserving a viable year-round Farmers Market should be a required project condition, not an afterthought. The City should publish a side-by-side comparison of every viable site covering emergency response, seismic safety, acquisition or opportunity cost, construction and operating cost, schedule, parking, traffic and Farmers Market continuity. If relocation is unavoidable, a funded replacement location and transition plan should be identified before the existing market is displaced.”
