Temporary Outdoor Dining Guidelines

At July 6 City Council Meeting, the City Council approved a resolution that supports our local businesses during this difficult time. The resolution temporarily suspends code enforcement actions against restaurants that are not currently permitted to provide outdoor dining service, but wish to use outdoor space to serve additional diners while State and County health orders restrict indoor dining to its full capacity.

Restaurants will need to receive authorization from their property owner to set up outdoor dining on private property and meet temporary outdoor dining guidelines set by the City. Restaurant owners/operators must submit this acknowledgement form to planning@fostercity.org before setting up outdoor dining area.
