MINNEAPOLIS, MN — Mayor Jacob Frey Monday sign an emergency regulation that puts a cap on third-party foodservice delivery fees at 15 percent in Minneapolis. The mayor and Council Member Lisa Goodman developed the measure to protect restaurants while indoor dining is banned in the state.
According to the mayor's office, some restaurants are incurring third-party delivery fees as high as 40 percent of the price for the customer order.
"Our restaurants have stepped up to continue serving their communities while safeguarding the health of their employees and customers," Frey said in a news release. "We need to provide every ounce of available support to them. Our restaurants are cultural institutions throughout Minneapolis, and this is urgently needed relief at a critical time."
