It looks like the Justice Center, Gavin Newsom's quality-of-life pet project, will, in fact, get the chance to bust people for public urination, aggressive panhandling, and open-air drug use. Supervisor Chris Daly's attempt to get $1 million pulled from the project -- money that could've been reassigned "to shore up the newly gutted Department of Public Health," suggests Curbed -- which "won" in a 6-4 Board vote yesterday, needed 8 votes to win. Alas. The Polk Street courtroom is scheduled to open early next year.
Green Light for Justice Center?
