I wonder if this would trigger a wave of closures just before the law comes into effect. Businesses who are evaluating whether to leave or not might get pushed over the edge. GTFO while you still can and all that.
I'd try to get out well before then, if I owned the place. The land value, or the lease-sublet-until-lease-comes-due value, will crash and burn hard if the communists institute authoritarian command economy measures. Wait too long, and it will become more and more costly to get out.
NYC banks already "extend-and-pretend" their commercial loans to prevent them from holding a bag on their shitty vacant properties full of crime. I can see San Fran doing the same.
