The city council’s motion says that about $2.36 million worth of outdoor dining fees have been waived since October 2020 to support city businesses.

According to the motion, Congress is expected to receive $716,000 in revenue this fiscal year from outdoor dining fee refunds.

The council also waives busking permit fees and forgoes $22,000 in revenue until June 2023 as the CBD continues to recover from the pandemic.
