Pizza redlining lesson from Hunter's Point saga in San Francisco
Clarence Page notes how San Francisco officials sought to curb discriminatory delivery barriers. A Domino's and Mr Pizzaman refused service to parts of Hunter's Point, prompting a safety and equity debate. The policy shift allowed a good faith risk belief, while a local Domino's owner later expanded delivery areas after public pressure.
