Asian-style night markets may become more common in California under proposed bill

Bustling, open-air night markets seen in places like China and Taiwan may be coming to California under new legislation introduced this week by Assemblymember Matt Haney, D-San Francisco.

Alongside San Francisco Supervisor Joel Engardio, Haney announced the introduction of Assembly Bill 441 on San Francisco’s Irving Street, where the city’s first recurring night market will launch in mid-September.
