With the warmer weather and the ongoing COVID restrictions, Lloydminster City Administration is looking at a temporary outdoor patio program to enhance business recovery, but in keeping with health guidelines.
The temporary support will be in line with Re-open Saskatchewan guidelines allowing for restaurants to have more capacity while saving owners on wait times to apply for permits.
The discussion came up on Monday 10, May at the Governance and Priorities Committee meeting. A highlight is Administration’s proposal to reduce the permit application fee from $75 to $25 to support local business.
