David Chiu, the President of the Board of Supervisors, has proposed a liquor moratorium for the Barbary Coast neighborhood, which would ban any new bars from opening on the stretch of Broadway between Columbus and Montgomery. This area is currently home to nine strip clubs, four of which sell liquor, and several bars.
Basically, the ban would prohibit any businesses from obtaining any new liquor licenses, called type 48s. Restaurants with a type 47 liquor license, which authorizes the sale of alcohol where food is also sold, would still be allowed to sell liquor for consumption on the
