Action Item 8(a) Public Hearing and Discussion of Ordinance No. 935 - Extension of Interim Regulations to Allow for Additional Extensions of Application and Permit Deadlines Beyond Those Provided for in the Shoreline Municipal Code Due to COVID-19 Impacts
On July 27, 2020, the City Council enacted interim regulations that provide relief for applicants by creating additional extensions of application and permit deadlines due to the impacts of COVID-19. This was extended on January 11, 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic may continue to impact the ability of permit customers, which in turn, may cause delays for the commencement of development activities.
Action Item 8(b) Public Hearing and Discussion of Ordinance No. 936 – Extension of Interim Regulations for Outdoor Seating
On the same dates as above, the City Council enacted and extended regulations for outdoor seating areas for existing restaurants and bars due to indoor seating restrictions related to COVID-19. Although the State’s reopening and lifting of restrictions are underway, the effects of the pandemic are likely to linger and some people’s comfort with indoor dining and gathering could discourage them from visiting local bars and restaurants that don’t have outdoor seating options.
