Outdoor Dining Survey
The City of Redmond is revisiting its outdoor dining offerings. In response to pandemic-related constraints on indoor business operations, the City had permitted businesses to create expanded dining areas on streets and sidewalks in 2020. Although the ordinance for these temporary setups has lapsed, the City is interested in public input to decide on potential permanent extensions of outdoor dining and their nature.
Add your input by completing the survey today at here.
