Just ahead of the forsythia and daffodil blooms, Sandwich business owners are taking the first steps toward spring openings.
Plans for expanded outdoor seating, new signs and fences, and building renovations were among last weekâs presentations to the Sandwich Historic District Committeeâthe regulatory board that often is the first recipient of business news.
Fishermenâs View, a hugely popular seafood restaurant on Freezer Road that opened in 2016, is seeking permissions and permits to expand an outdoor seating area overlooking the canal.
Owner Robert Colbert told the HDC that he will add up to 36 more seats on a side patio covered with permeable pavers (to allow water to flow through, per a request from the conservation commission) and that the tables would be spaced at least six feet apart.
