Council voted unanimously to allow patios established under the Business Recovery from Pandemic Bylaw to stay over the busy summer season
Two neighbourhood pub patios have received a stay of execution, after council voted unanimously to extend until Nov. 30 patios established under the Business Recovery from Pandemic Bylaw.
Mayor Marianne Alto said Thursday that extending the deadline will allow the pubs to enjoy what is expected to be a busy summer and provide city staff time to look at potential changes to the patio bylaws. “The reality is city staff moved incredibly quickly three years ago to allow economic vibrancy to flourish while COVID was going on, and we created a patio culture,” he said. “This just extends the process to the end of November. That makes sense and allows us to carry on the discussion to accommodate a vibrant patio culture that we’ve actually helped create.”
The bylaw was a return to pre-pandemic rules, which had been suspended when the city introduced the Business Recovery from Pandemic Bylaw and related Build Back Victoria program, which permitted patios so businesses could meet pandemic-related social distancing requirements. With business getting back to normal, the city adopted the Patio Regulation Bylaw in March, with an eye to maintaining some of the vibrant patios and street life realized during the pandemic while protecting the integrity of public space and city assets.
