A recent announcement by Governor Newsom confirmed that the statewide stay at home order will shortly be changed to “Stage 2,” thereby allowing increased activities for local businesses to include some retail and indoor dining, subject to certain restrictions. In preparation of businesses reopening in Stage 2, the City will temporarily reduce its requirements related to outdoor dining in order to assist restaurants who are trying to accommodate the occupancy reductions for indoor dining. The City will also modify its on-site parking requirements to assist retail locations to provide for safe and efficient merchandise pick-up. Below is a link to the guidelines and application.
