Outdoor Seating To Be Available For Platteville Restaurants

The Platteville Common Council on Tuesday unanimously approved a new process to help restaurants during the coronavirus pandemic. Restaurants can apply for temporary permits for outdoor seating, valid until October 31st. Under the plan, the city council will permit restaurants to set up temporary outdoor seating areas on sidewalks, parking stalls and city streets on a case-by-case basis. The council is also considering a similar temporary outdoor seating permit for bars and will revisit the issue at its July 28^th meeting.
