With San Francisco's Sunset Night Market canceled, small businesses start their own event

Smokin' D's BBQ started as a pop-up, but has expanded into its first brick-and-mortar storefront on Irving Street. Lareina Chu says the now-canceled Sunset Night Market, which brought in an estimated 20,000 people last year, was great for restaurants like hers, but a letdown for others. "They closed down the streets so early. The banks, dry cleaners, they all need car access. They closed down the streets at 8 a.m. and that affected their businesses," said Chu. Chu and other small businesses are now banding together to create a smaller event called Sunset After Dark, while addressing concerns from other merchants. "This iteration, we're making it a lot smaller and not closing the streets down until late afternoon, which allows for a quicker setup and still allows access to all those businesses," said Chu. Rob Aiavao, an organizer with the non-profit Dear Community that's putting on this event, wants it to be for the community and small businesses, without relying on any city funding. "With the cancellation of the Sunset Night Market, the merchants along Irving Street saw that there was a gap that needed to be filled. For them, it was how can we build up a community event that is grassroots?" said Aiavao. Angie Petitt of Sunset Mercantile, which canceled this year's market, says the decision was a funding and logistical issue. "There's nothing political about our decision to put a pause on it. We really wanted to iron out what works best and how this should look for the community. That takes time to iron out," said Petitt. Chu is focused on running her business and creating an event that helps her neighbors, too. "We're trying to work with everyone in the neighborhood so it's successful for everybody," said Chu. No politics, just food, community, and business. District 4 Supervisor Joel Engardio previously posted on X that the Sunset Night Market was canceled "not because of lack of interest, but because the recall campaign poisoned local politics." On Friday, he told CBS News Bay Area, he's "supporting this community-led effort." Sunset After Dark will take place on Friday, Sept. 26, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Irving Street between 20th and 23rd Avenues.

California air conditioning rebate program expands across state for eligible drivers

There's nothing worse than getting into your car on a hot day and realizing your air conditioning isn't working. "As soon as the people start sweating, they come right over," said Adrian Ramirez, the owner of Unique Auto Air Conditioning in Lodi. "From March, June, July, until now." Ramirez knows all too well that A/C is crucial during the summer. "With the heat and the road, we check like tires, hoses, belts, all to make sure everything's safe and OK to keep going," Ramirez explained. But now, there's a way for eligible customers to save on fixing their systems and mechanics to provide more services. "Cool Air Rebate Program is a financial assistance program for low-income Californians who have leaking vehicle air conditioning systems and need to get them repaired," Car Care Council Executive Director Nathan Perrine shared. Up to 90% of the repair costs are covered by the program. To qualify, customers need to be California residents, provide the year and make of their car on the application, and have a household income of less than 225% of the federal poverty line. "We do ask a few things from our shops," Perrine continued. "Number one, a shop has to be in good standing with the Bureau of Automotive Repair. So first and foremost, we also ask that our shops have at least one technician that is certified to work on air conditioning systems." Not only does this help customers and shops, but it also helps the environment. "R-134a refrigerant contains a greenhouse gas that's 1,400 times more potent than carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere," Perrine said. "So repairing these leaking systems and keeping that refrigerant out of the atmosphere has an air quality benefit for not just these households and communities, but for everyone." For shop owners like Ramirez, it's all about helping as many customers as he can to stay safe and cool on the road. "I have a letter by mail saying if you'd like to be part of it and help the community and that's one of my goals, to help my local community," Ramirez said. If you want to find a shop that provides this service near you, go to the Cool Air Rebate Program website.
