Medical Officer of Health Dr. Eillen de Villa had asked council to sign off on lowering the allowed capacity at restaurants and bars from 100 to 75 and the maximum number of people permitted at any one table from 10 to six.
They also voted in favour of a five-point plan unveiled by Mayor John Tory earlier in the day to help support the restaurant and bar industry. The resulting plan directs staff to explore ways in which the city can support the restaurant industry by allowing winter patio operations. “I realize that these public health measures contained in Dr. de Villa’s recommendations today and any future measures that may be necessary along with reduced hours mandated by the provincial government will have a negative impact on businesses that were struggling before and just trying to keep the lights on and keep people employed.
He said that what he is interested in is exploring ways that the city could assist restaurants in maintaining their permanent patio spaces through the winter.
