Victoria council to consider extending patio season

The Chamber has written a letter to Victoria Council urging an extension of the Build Back Victoria plan until next spring.
 
“The City’s leadership and investment in innovations led by business are making a difference,” states the letter, which is included in a staff report outlining experiences with the program so far. “Many of our restaurants, cafes and pubs were able to sustain their operations because of the opportunity they were given to expand their spaces.”
 
Council will consider extending the program tomorrow, as well as a suggestion to allow for vehicle access to businesses on the section of Government Street closed to traffic.
