San Diego law enforcement personnel will begin fully enforcing the city’s Sidewalk Vending Ordinance in beach areas starting Feb. 1, following a similar enforcement step-up in the Gaslamp Quarter in December.
“San Diego has long awaited these regulations that will bring vendors into the formal economy and ensure access to San Diego’s public spaces for all,” Councilwoman Jennifer Campbell said when the ordinance was approved in 2022. Campbell represents many of the city’s beach communities in District 2 and pushed the law forward.
