The fire station closures are the first of two phases that would shut down almost 30% of the Fire Department’s services, firefighter Chris Robinson said at a Monday press conference before the City Council’s first meeting of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The closure of three fire stations is problematic, but the city administrator’s proposal to close four more stations next month would be catastrophic,” he said, surrounded by dozens of current and former first responders. “These cuts are a tragedy waiting to happen.

The contingency was triggered in September after the Coliseum’s buyers, the African American Sports and Entertainment Group, missed payments \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12015103/oakland-is-at-risk-of-financial-insolvency-is-bankruptcy-on-the-table\">originally scheduled\u003c/a> for September and November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12020359\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12020359\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/20250105_OakFireClose_DMB_00091-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland Fire Department Station 28 on Jan. 5, 2025, located on Grass Valley Road in the East Oakland Hills.

I’ll never make a misleading statement. I’ll never betray the trust of those who have confidence in me, and I will never avoid a controversial issue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carter was elected when the mood of the country was bitter and cynical in the wake of the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal. The man from Georgia struck out on a different course on his inauguration day: Carter and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, stepped out of the bulletproof limousine and walked to the White House to demonstrate their connection with the American people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was mainly an attempt to draw a distinction between what he saw as the people’s presidency and the more imperial presidency of Richard Nixon,” said historian Dan Carter (no relation to Jimmy Carter).\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Carter White House\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Among Jimmy Carter’s accomplishments were the \u003ca href=\"https://www.jimmycarterlibrary.gov/research/additional-resources/camp-david-accords/camp-david-accords-after-twenty-five-years\">Camp David Accords\u003c/a>, which brought together the prime minister of Israel and the president of Egypt in 1978. They signed peace agreements on the White House lawn, and Carter spoke about the dedication and determination of the leaders who had been enemies for so many years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The accords led to a peace treaty, but the relationship between the two Mideast countries remained tenuous. While in office, Carter also worked on the \u003ca href=\"https://history.state.gov/milestones/1969-1976/salt\">SALT II nuclear weapons agreement\u003c/a> and signed the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nps.gov/teachers/classrooms/the-panama-canal-the-ratification-of-the-carter-torrijos-treaties.htm\">Panama Canal treaties\u003c/a>, giving control of the canal to Panama.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Carter’s most difficult challenge was the \u003ca href=\"https://www.jimmycarterlibrary.gov/research/hostage_crisis_in_iran\">Iran hostage crisis\u003c/a>. Militants stormed the U.S. Embassy in Iran in 1979 and took dozens of Americans hostage. People were glued to reports on the crisis for more than a year, as Carter continued to negotiate for the release of the hostages. In 1980, a failed rescue attempt led to the deaths of eight American servicepeople.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration also battled domestic problems, including an energy crisis and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2021/05/29/1001023637/think-inflation-is-bad-now-lets-take-a-step-back-to-the-1970s\">double-digit inflation\u003c/a>. Carter held a series of meetings among his Cabinet members that resulted in a blunt television address in 1979 that came to be known as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106508243\">“malaise” speech\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s clear that the true problems of our nation are much deeper — deeper than gasoline lines or energy shortages, deeper even than inflation or recession. And I realize more than ever that as president, I need your help,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.c-span.org/video/?153917-1/president-carter-address-crisis-confidence\">Carter pleaded\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carter established a federal energy policy. He created the departments of Energy and Education. Still, he lost his bid for reelection by a landslide to Republican Ronald Reagan. And it wasn’t until moments after Reagan was sworn in as president on Jan. 20, 1981, that the 52 remaining hostages were released. Carter was allowed to welcome them home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had received word officially for the first time that the aircraft carrying the 52 American hostages had cleared Iranian airspace on the first leg of the journey home and that every one of the 52 hostages was alive, was well and free,” Carter said as his voice broke.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Life after Washington\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>After leaving office, Carter became dedicated to promoting democracy, monitoring elections, building homes with Habitat for Humanity and eradicating disease in some of the world’s poorest countries. In 1982, the president and his wife opened the Carter Center in Atlanta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=15051264\">interview with NPR in 2007\u003c/a>, Carter talked about his experiences. “And for the last 25 years, my life could not have been more expansive and unpredictable and adventurous and gratifying,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2002, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/peace/2002/carter/facts/\">Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize\u003c/a>, an honor some said he had earned a quarter century earlier when he negotiated the Camp David Accords. He ended his acceptance speech with a plea for peace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“War may sometimes be a necessary evil, but no matter how necessary, it is always evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other’s children,” Carter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The former president continued international peace missions throughout his lifetime, meeting with the leaders of countries that some U.S. presidents refused to acknowledge, including North Korea, Nicaragua and Cuba. In 2008, he met with the exiled leader of the militant Islamist group Hamas, despite harsh criticism from the U.S. government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12019964\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12019964\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1066\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy.jpg 1600w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-1536x1023.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and other members of the Elders group attend a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Moscow in April 2015.

I’ll never make a misleading statement. I’ll never betray the trust of those who have confidence in me, and I will never avoid a controversial issue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carter was elected when the mood of the country was bitter and cynical in the wake of the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal. The man from Georgia struck out on a different course on his inauguration day: Carter and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, stepped out of the bulletproof limousine and walked to the White House to demonstrate their connection with the American people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was mainly an attempt to draw a distinction between what he saw as the people’s presidency and the more imperial presidency of Richard Nixon,” said historian Dan Carter (no relation to Jimmy Carter).\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Carter White House\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Among Jimmy Carter’s accomplishments were the \u003ca href=\"https://www.jimmycarterlibrary.gov/research/additional-resources/camp-david-accords/camp-david-accords-after-twenty-five-years\">Camp David Accords\u003c/a>, which brought together the prime minister of Israel and the president of Egypt in 1978. They signed peace agreements on the White House lawn, and Carter spoke about the dedication and determination of the leaders who had been enemies for so many years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The accords led to a peace treaty, but the relationship between the two Mideast countries remained tenuous. While in office, Carter also worked on the \u003ca href=\"https://history.state.gov/milestones/1969-1976/salt\">SALT II nuclear weapons agreement\u003c/a> and signed the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nps.gov/teachers/classrooms/the-panama-canal-the-ratification-of-the-carter-torrijos-treaties.htm\">Panama Canal treaties\u003c/a>, giving control of the canal to Panama.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Carter’s most difficult challenge was the \u003ca href=\"https://www.jimmycarterlibrary.gov/research/hostage_crisis_in_iran\">Iran hostage crisis\u003c/a>. Militants stormed the U.S. Embassy in Iran in 1979 and took dozens of Americans hostage. People were glued to reports on the crisis for more than a year, as Carter continued to negotiate for the release of the hostages. In 1980, a failed rescue attempt led to the deaths of eight American servicepeople.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration also battled domestic problems, including an energy crisis and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2021/05/29/1001023637/think-inflation-is-bad-now-lets-take-a-step-back-to-the-1970s\">double-digit inflation\u003c/a>. Carter held a series of meetings among his Cabinet members that resulted in a blunt television address in 1979 that came to be known as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106508243\">“malaise” speech\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s clear that the true problems of our nation are much deeper — deeper than gasoline lines or energy shortages, deeper even than inflation or recession. And I realize more than ever that as president, I need your help,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.c-span.org/video/?153917-1/president-carter-address-crisis-confidence\">Carter pleaded\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carter established a federal energy policy. He created the departments of Energy and Education. Still, he lost his bid for reelection by a landslide to Republican Ronald Reagan. And it wasn’t until moments after Reagan was sworn in as president on Jan. 20, 1981, that the 52 remaining hostages were released. Carter was allowed to welcome them home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had received word officially for the first time that the aircraft carrying the 52 American hostages had cleared Iranian airspace on the first leg of the journey home and that every one of the 52 hostages was alive, was well and free,” Carter said as his voice broke.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Life after Washington\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>After leaving office, Carter became dedicated to promoting democracy, monitoring elections, building homes with Habitat for Humanity and eradicating disease in some of the world’s poorest countries. In 1982, the president and his wife opened the Carter Center in Atlanta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=15051264\">interview with NPR in 2007\u003c/a>, Carter talked about his experiences. “And for the last 25 years, my life could not have been more expansive and unpredictable and adventurous and gratifying,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2002, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/peace/2002/carter/facts/\">Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize\u003c/a>, an honor some said he had earned a quarter century earlier when he negotiated the Camp David Accords. He ended his acceptance speech with a plea for peace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“War may sometimes be a necessary evil, but no matter how necessary, it is always evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other’s children,” Carter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The former president continued international peace missions throughout his lifetime, meeting with the leaders of countries that some U.S. presidents refused to acknowledge, including North Korea, Nicaragua and Cuba. In 2008, he met with the exiled leader of the militant Islamist group Hamas, despite harsh criticism from the U.S. government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12019964\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12019964\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1066\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy.jpg 1600w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/carter-russia-getty_custom-ab3c50bbf469aec4125be388bfbb8aabba9c3048-copy-1536x1023.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and other members of the Elders group attend a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Moscow in April 2015.

The package includes a number of laws taking effect Jan. 1 that make it easier for prosecutors to charge professional or repeat thieves with felonies. Among them:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A law that \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB2943\">creates a new felony crime for people\u003c/a> who repeatedly steal small amounts in a short period of time or possess stolen goods to resell them. The measure makes it easier for police to arrest shoplifters even if they don’t witness the theft.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A change in law that allows \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB905\">someone to be charged with burglary\u003c/a> from a car even if the car was unlocked. This provision also makes it easier to pursue a felony against those who repeatedly steal small amounts of goods.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A law that lets \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB3209\">retailers obtain restraining orders\u003c/a> against people who are convicted of stealing from them.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A law that \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB1416\">increases penalties \u003c/a>for professional organized retail theft rings.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Parking fines\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California drivers will need to be on their toes while parking. Another law going into full effect on Jan. 1 \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB413\">prohibits parking a vehicle within 20 feet of a crosswalk\u003c/a>, regardless of whether there’s a designated parking spot or not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the law is already in effect, cities can begin ticketing drivers starting Jan. 1. The new law aims to make streets safer for pedestrians. Fines will vary by city.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Transgender rights\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>After national debates over whether schools should notify parents about a child’s gender identity, at least a dozen California school districts passed policies requiring educators to notify parents if their kids ask to use a different name or pronoun. A \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB1955\">new law taking effect Jan. 1 will ban those policies.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Expanded pay and benefits\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California’s minimum wage will increase from $16 an hour to $16.50 an hour on Jan. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several new laws will also expand paid sick and family leave for employees:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>One allows workers to \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB2499\">qualify for more paid state leave\u003c/a> when they or a family member is the victim of a crime. Workers can also use paid sick time to serve on a jury.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Another law \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB2123\">eliminates the two-week vacation requirement\u003c/a> previously needed to qualify for paid family leave. The change impacts employees who take time off work to care for a seriously ill child, spouse, parent, domestic partner or to bond with a new child.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Worker rights\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Employers will be \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB399\">barred from requiring workers to attend meetings \u003c/a>where they discuss religious or political issues — including labor organizing. The new law bans mandatory “captive audience” meetings, which some businesses have used to lay out their arguments against unionizing or regulations, and prohibits retaliation against workers who decline to attend. Workers who refuse to attend these meetings must still be paid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Farmworkers and freelancers will enjoy new legal protections. One new law will \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB1105\">allow agricultural workers to use paid sick days \u003c/a>to avoid extreme heat, smoke or flooding. Another will \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB988\">require employers of freelance workers to pay them within 30 days\u003c/a>, unless a contract specifies otherwise, and allows contractors to bring a civil lawsuit if they aren’t paid on time.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Cannabis shops\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Cannabis lounges \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB1775\">will be able to host live performances and sell non-cannabis-infused food and drinks\u003c/a> under another new law. The law won’t automatically grant permission for these events and sales, but it allows local cities and counties, which issue permits to local cannabis businesses, to approve them.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Food delivery details\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Food delivery apps will be \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB375\">required to provide customers with a first name and photo \u003c/a>of their delivery driver under a new law.

The measure makes it easier for police to arrest shoplifters even if they don’t witness the theft.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A change in law that allows \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB905\">someone to be charged with burglary\u003c/a> from a car even if the car was unlocked. This provision also makes it easier to pursue a felony against those who repeatedly steal small amounts of goods.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A law that lets \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB3209\">retailers obtain restraining orders\u003c/a> against people who are convicted of stealing from them.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A law that \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB1416\">increases penalties \u003c/a>for professional organized retail theft rings.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Another law going into full effect on Jan. 1 \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB413\">prohibits parking a vehicle within 20 feet of a crosswalk\u003c/a>, regardless of whether there’s a designated parking spot or not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the law is already in effect, cities can begin ticketing drivers starting Jan. 1.

A \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB1955\">new law taking effect Jan. 1 will ban those policies.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Expanded pay and benefits\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California’s minimum wage will increase from $16 an hour to $16.50 an hour on Jan. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several new laws will also expand paid sick and family leave for employees:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>One allows workers to \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB2499\">qualify for more paid state leave\u003c/a> when they or a family member is the victim of a crime.

The new law bans mandatory “captive audience” meetings, which some businesses have used to lay out their arguments against unionizing or regulations, and prohibits retaliation against workers who decline to attend. Workers who refuse to attend these meetings must still be paid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Farmworkers and freelancers will enjoy new legal protections. One new law will \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB1105\">allow agricultural workers to use paid sick days \u003c/a>to avoid extreme heat, smoke or flooding. Another will \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB988\">require employers of freelance workers to pay them within 30 days\u003c/a>, unless a contract specifies otherwise, and allows contractors to bring a civil lawsuit if they aren’t paid on time.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Cannabis shops\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Cannabis lounges \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB1775\">will be able to host live performances and sell non-cannabis-infused food and drinks\u003c/a> under another new law. The law won’t automatically grant permission for these events and sales, but it allows local cities and counties, which issue permits to local cannabis businesses, to approve them.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Food delivery details\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Food delivery apps will be \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB375\">required to provide customers with a first name and photo \u003c/a>of their delivery driver under a new law.
