Jackson seeks amendment for outdoor entertainment permit for SantaCon and New Year's Eve

The City of San Francisco held a meeting on July 4, 2025, where a key agenda item focused on a request from Jackson, located at 3231 Fillmore Street. Jackson is seeking an amendment to their jam permit, which would allow them to host outdoor entertainment and amplified sound during after-hours on three specific dates this month: December 11 for SantaCon, December 18 for a holiday party, and December 31 for New Year's Eve.

During these events, Jackson plans to feature DJs and play prerecorded streaming music in their outdoor shared spaces. The proposed amendment would permit extended hours of outdoor entertainment and amplified sound beyond the current cutoff time of 10 PM on these occasions.

The meeting included a review of Jackson's jam permit application and their current amended jam permit, which were provided to attendees for consideration. The discussions highlighted the city's approach to balancing community entertainment needs with noise regulations. Further deliberations on this request are expected as the city evaluates the implications of the proposed changes.
