Residents and businesses in San Francisco's Tenderloin district have initiated a lawsuit against the city, accusing it of allowing the neighborhood to become a haven for open-air drug markets and crowded encampments. The lawsuit, which was filed in federal court, claims the city has effectively turned the Tenderloin into a "containment zone" for illegal activities, particularly drug use and dealing, with substances like fentanyl and meth being predominantly mentioned. This legal action represents the latest effort by the community to address what they see as the city's failure to manage the drug and homeless crises effectively. The plaintiffs, which include two hotels and several residents, are seeking a resolution that would ensure streets free of drugs and tent encampments, aiming to restore safety and order to the neighborhood.
