The City of Stratford has approved a plan to allow for outdoor dining experiences to help local restaurants during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Late last month, the City announced the plan for outdoor dining.
The idea was presented to council through the Stratford Economic Response & Recovery Task Force.
It’s a collaborative effort with a number of players to ensure safety for all, with the local BIA leading the charge.
This means the city is allowing picnic tables and patio umbrellas to in public spaces, while offering additional hand sanitizer stations and waste management locations throughout Market Square and Upper Queens Park, where the tables will be initially set up.
The media release indicates this will provide a safe eatery option for over 200 people, while being at least two metres away from another the table.
