town neighborhoods, there is a bit of uneasiness about what happens after it does close next year, especially for seniors and families. we ran into, well, it makes me feel tiny bit better, but they shouldn't close it at all because it's too useful to the people here. >> january is just prolonging the inevitable. i think that they should stick around for longer than that. >> san francisco mayor london breed was the first to announce the city, and safeway reached an agreement to extend services by tweeting this video of her speaking with employees at the store. >> they agreed to continue to keep the store open. >> in an email to the mayor's office, we asked if safeway was incentivized to stay open with, say, extra police officers, which we saw on property when we were there. as of late monday, we have yet to hear back. supervisor dean preston previously sent a letter to

safeway demanding that they withdraw their plan to close the grocery store in march. he says whatever is on this site going forward, it should include a grocery store. there's a lot of work to do to figure out what's going to happen at this site, and make sure the community is involved, but first things first, we're all very relieved and pleased that we're not facing the closure of fillmore's only full service grocery store in march. a rally will be held here tuesday at 9 a.m. those from the n double acp, also the japantown task force will be here. they are demanding a community led plan for this site going forward. j.r. stone abc seven news. and there is a similar sense of despair over in the east bay tonight. >> yeah, long time customers are sad about in and outs decision to close its location in oakland. the restaurant is located on oakport street off hegenberger road. you've likely seen it driving on 880 or on the way to the airport. >> in and out sites. crime not

on to the general election in the fall, regardless of their party. but given the state's liberal tilt, political science professor melissa michaelson says it's often the democratic candidate who wins the primary that comes out on top in a lot of cases, including this one, it can turn out to be that the primary is where things are decided now, even though the election is in early march, every registered voter in california will receive a ballot in the mail. those are set to be sent out on february 5th in the studio tonight. tim johns abc seven news. >> all right, tim, thank you. now to the east bay, the effort to recall oakland mayor shengtao is moving forward. recall organizers tell abc seven news mayor tao did not respond to the certified letter they sent the deadline for her to do so. was friday. the group's next step will be to publish a recall campaign ad in a major newspaper . they hope to collect 25,000 signatures to present to the city. it's about 10% of oakland's registered voters. >> new developments the week long strike among california state university faculty members is over. as soon as it started.

our trails and keep our river clean. keep our city economically vibrant. if we're just kind of chasing the encampments around the city, the memo would direct the city manager to implement a no return zone that prevents encampments along the guadalupe river trail. we can then go to large neighboring encampments and say, we're sorry, this is an area where you can't camp. it's not safe for you. it's not okay for the broader community or the environment. we're going to require that you come indoors. but here's a place you can go in san mateo county, the board of supervisors will be considering an ordinance on tuesday that promotes shelter and penalizes illegal encampments. >> the ordinance states. if a person is occupying an encampment on public property, they can be charged with a misdemeanor after receiving at least two written warnings and two offers of shelter that are declined. elizabeth funk is the ceo of dignity moves, a company that builds interim supportive housing communities. >> i think the media likes to

sensationalize and talk about, criminalize homelessness, but when i see stories like this, i get really excited because it's great news that you have two municipalities that have taken this problem seriously enough, and they've built enough capacity that they're in a place to have this conversation, said cities, along with federal support, should provide not just basic shelters, but the right kind of temporary housing assistance. i've had people who refused shelter because they're trying to get sober and they're drug users at the shelter. i believe that if we have legitimate offers that are palatable for that person, and we should be able to reclaim public spaces because we have offered palatable options in the south bay. >> lauren martinez, abc seven news. >> turning to the race for president, two faces are fighting for the republican vote in new hampshire. as tonight, the very first ballots are cast. >> the golden state warriors, grieving one of their own. the tributes tonight for the coach lovingly known as coach dickey as the warriors returned to practice and the build up to hollywood's biggest night, who

a quarter mile or less. so be careful if you are driving through this area. vacaville right now reporting just over a mile of visibility. santa rosa a half a mile and half moon bay, three mile visibility. you get a break from the storms tomorrow, believe it or not. so this system that brought us the rain had some thunderstorms earlier today in santa clara county is on its way out and here's the next system that is coming in on wednesday. as we look at live doppler seven, all is quiet. other than the fog in the sierra, we did see some snow over the last several days. 48 hours snow totals quieted down. now have ranged from six inches to almost three feet at 32in. at some of the resorts, there. avalanche warning for the back country, including tahoe, continues until 7 a.m. tomorrow. so just keep that in mind. statewide, sierra snowpack has gone up to 55% of average 40s and 50s on your temperatures right now. coastal flood advisory tomorrow from 8 a.m. to noon. the reason for this is the high tides will be coming up tomorrow morning, just past 9

a.m, over six feet. so that's when you will see some minor low lying flooding overnight tonight. here are the headlines. fog and isolated showers. still not out of the question tomorrow. break from the storms and then wednesday our next system arrives and it will bring us some rain. but as we look at our future cast tomorrow morning, fog is the biggest concern. between 5 and 10 a.m. and then it will lift on out of here and will be replaced by some clouds tomorrow morning. 40s and 50s. give yourself that extra time for the commute. you just may need it tomorrow afternoon. 50s, 60s. you see some sun breaks too, which will be a nice change of pace to dry out. and speaking of dry, it is going to be dry for the niners playoff game again at the lions 68 degrees. can you believe that ? with sunshine 60 degrees at fourth quarter level one system coming in here on wednesday with light to moderate rain impacting the morning commute, it will be breezy tomorrow night. a couple of sprinkles. well to our north. and then wednesday morning is when we are expecting the rain. 5 a.m. to 8 a.m. is when most of

it goes through. some scattered showers remain between 11 a.m. and the evening rush, but really, overall rainfall is not expected to be quite as intense as what we have experienced. so rainfall projections anywhere from about 1000/200 in fremont there to 6000/500 at clear lake. here's a look at the accuweather seven day forecast. your break from the storms tomorrow. wednesday is a level one rain breezy. you get a chance to dry out until late in the week and going into the weekend. a level one for saturday for the niners game. right now it is looking dry. ama and dan we'll be
