CA SB395

Authorizes the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control to issue up to 20 additional on-sale general liquor licenses for restaurants within a designated "hospitality zone" in San Francisco, bypassing existing population-based license caps

Defines a hospitality zone as an area designated by San Francisco ordinance on or after January 1, 2026, containing at least 1,000,000 square feet of retail shopping space open to the public, with only one such zone permitted

Limits license issuance to 10 licenses in the first year after zone designation, then up to 5 licenses per subsequent year, with no new licenses issued after July 1, 2033

Prohibits licenses from being transferred between counties, outside the hospitality zone, to other entities (except for certain estate/probate transfers), or sold for more than the original fee paid

Requires San Francisco to adopt an ordinance with zone boundaries, findings that the area qualifies, and a determination that additional licenses serve public convenience or necessity
