It won’t be long until patio season begins, and Brampton businesses can get on board.
But first, you need a permit.
Restaurants, bars and cafés will be allowed under the permit to operate for a limited time during the warmer months.
The patios allow establishments to expand their seating capacity, allowing more customers to enjoy the atmosphere of outdoor dining.
Through this program, with a valid permit, businesses can operate outdoor patios from April 4 to Oct. 31, with a daily closing time of 11 pm. All patio structures must be removed by Nov. 7.
The program is aimed at supporting economic growth and fostering a more vibrant community, according to the city.
Over the past several years, Brampton has issued permits to many businesses.
To apply for a Temporary Seasonal Patio Permit, business owners will be required to:
The applicant must have a current and valid business licence issued by the City of Brampton and be classified as a restaurant, cafe or bar.
The applicant must carry commercial general liability insurance that is satisfactory to the City of Brampton.
The applicant must provide written permission from the neighbouring property owner or tenant if they wish to use the space in front of a neighbouring business.
The applicant must provide written approval from the landlord/property owner or property manager.
The applicant must provide written notification to surrounding businesses and residents of the patio and liquor sales (if applicable).
The applicant must provide a detailed plan or sketch of the proposed temporary patio.
