The San Francisco Board of Appeals reached a temporary solution after a four-hour hearing regarding a conflict between lion dancers and disturbed local residents in Chinatown.
The LionDanceME (for “music” and “entertainment”), a renowned troupe of about 100 full-time student dancers, faced opposition from local merchants who complained about noise and street closures.
Both sides emphasize their love for Chinatown but differ in perspective on the impact of the lion dancers on the community.
The temporary solution was passed with a 4-1 vote on Thursday. The motion will continue to allow lion dance performances but only on Saturdays from noon to 5 p.m. on one block of Grant Avenue until June 30.
