(ABC 6 News) - In Albert lea, there is some help for businesses too.
The city council is waving the upcoming permit and license fees for establishments affected by the pandemic.
The waiver applies to businesses that paid for licenses or permits during the pandemic but were not allowed to open. The list includes bars and restaurants, hotels, movie theaters, massage providers, sexual-oriented businesses, and permits for arcades and pool tables.
I hope people take it as the city does want you to reopen, that you know that the city does care, you know what is fair and works within its powers, says Ian Rigg, Albert Lea City Manager.
