Thank you for all your efforts in continuing to keep our temporary State Street Promenade safe and enjoyable for our entire community.

The below list serves as a reminder of the rules and regulations under the city’s emergency ordinance as well as county health guidelines due to Covid-19. 
Live music and amplified sound are prohibited. As soon as conditions change and these restrictions are lifted, we can start dancing to great local music in the street. The team at DSB can’t wait either!

Masks must be worn in public spaces along the State Street Promenade and keep 6 feet of social distance.

Bikes and skateboards and other similar devises must be walked through the 500 block of State Street between Haley and Gutierrez and in other areas operate at a safe, controlled speed of 5 MPH and share the space. 

Persons engaged in activities protected by the First Amendment shall remain at least 6 feet from any other person.

Temporary outdoor dining areas must comply with the following requirements:
  • An area extending 7 feet in both directions from the center line of the closed street is restricted for the use of pedestrians only. This serves as the public safety route for fire, medical and police. Please do not set up any other items, tables, vendors, or bands etc.

  • Businesses must comply with all City noise regulations. (SBMC Chapter 9. 16. – Link to code
