- 🍽️ The New York City outdoor dining program is set to begin, with permits issued for 617 roadway setups and over 1,800 sidewalk sheds.
- 📅 Currently, the program allows outdoor dining only between April and November, a restriction some find too limiting.
Proposed Legislation for Year-Round Dining
- 🏛️ Assembly member Tony Simone has introduced a bill aiming to make outdoor dining available year-round in NYC.
- 💰 Supporters argue that a year-round program would benefit customers and local businesses, as it's too costly for small businesses to repeatedly set up and take down roadway cafes.
- 📈 The bill's proponents are seeking support from Governor Hokll, despite the city's Department of Transportation overseeing these dining structures.
