i Everyone -
We Got This LG! We are slowly reopening.
The Town and the Chamber have been working hard on the Los Gatos Recovery Initiative. The Town has agreed to allow the downtown businesses to expand into designated parking spaces. In order to create these temporary pop-up patios as soon as possible, the Town will install cement k-rails. Businesses are free to decorate their k-rails by painting them, covering them or adding planters. Please remember—this is a temporary solution until businesses can utilize 100% of their inside space.

Wear that mask.. have some patience... have even more respect...be kind Los Gatos.
Shop local and experience LG safely!

The Chamber of Commerce, just like every business, is experiencing financial impacts due to COVID-19. Our ability to generate revenue has been greatly diminished due to the protocols necessary to control this pandemic. Despite all of these challenges, we have made our resources, webinars, and public policy advocacy available to the general public during this challenging time.
If you are interested in supporting our efforts to be a catalyst, convener and a champion for a stronger community, we would be grateful for your financial contribution of any size. We look forward to continuing to serve you all.
