During the pandemic, parklets popped up all over our city. These small seating spots along sidewalks and parking lanes helped restaurants stay in business and brought people together when we couldn’t gather indoors.
Thankfully, the darkest days of COVID are behind us. But in the years since, the city has started imposing fines and new regulations on parklets, making it difficult for small business owners to stay compliant. Sometimes it means shutting down their parklets and losing thousands of dollars in revenue.
Parklets are good for business and bring life to our streets. I believe we need to do everything we can to make them last – and not let bureaucracy get in the way. If you agree, sign my petition today. [[link removed]]

Many small business owners spent thousands of dollars to build their parklets during the pandemic. Now, they are having to scrounge up tens of thousands of dollars to keep their parklets compliant with new regulations. It’s unnecessary red tape that threatens the vibrancy of our city.
Last year, I led the effort to waive the initial fee for every business that applies for a parklet license through July 1, 2024. It’s helping businesses keep their parklets open.
But we need to do more to preserve these neighborhood fixtures and ease the burden on small businesses. Add your name if you agree. [[link removed]]
