applications may be submitted as of April 3, 2023

Set Up Options:

1. Sidewalk Café - If you are a food business that has been or currently is eligible for a sidewalk café permit, and do not want to participate or are not eligible for an open-air set up permit, you may apply to have a sidewalk café permit. 
2. Open-Air Set Up (Non-Food Business) - If you are a non-food business located on the 100 and 200 blocks of Bridge Street and you wish to have a set up extension in front of your store-front, you may apply for just an open-air set up permit.
3. Sidewalk Café/Open-Air Set Up Permit -  This is an option that combines a sidewalk café and an open-air set up permit for food businesses located on the 100 and 200 block of Bridge Street. This would allow businesses to set up on days where the open-air set up closures are not taking place (Mondays at 7am to Fridays at 2pm), as well as during the open-air set up permit hours of operation (see below). 

All three of these options will use the same application - just check all permit type boxes that apply to specify which of these permits you wish to obtain.

PLEASE NOTE: You must receive approval before setting up. Submitting an application and insurance certificate does not give you automatic approval.

Sidewalk Café set ups may begin April 3rd, 2023
Open-air set ups will begin on May 26th, 2023
