Outdoor Seating for Bars and Restaurants In Platteville

Platteville bar and restaurant owners now can apply to create or expand their outdoor seating areas temporarily. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Common Council members have authorized staff to issue outdoor seating permits. Businesses with liquor licenses can serve alcohol in the outdoor areas. The permit, which is valid through October 31st, would make it possible for proprietors to set up temporary outdoor seating areas on sidewalks, parking stalls and city streets on a case-by-case basis. Approved establishments can offer expanded outdoor seating from 4 to 10 p.m. on weekdays and from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends.
