[quote=Anonymous]Hi there! Great question, you can find out more about DDOT's Streatery Program here: https://publicspace-activation.ddot.dc.gov/pages/streateries

Streateries are set to expire December 31, 2023, but are likely to be extended again to allow more time to develop regulations to support a permanent Streatery Program. The draft regulations are scheduled to be posted for public comment this summer, so stay tuned for more information to come out soon about what that program will look like. All food establishments will need to reapply for permits under the new permanent program to ensure compliance with the new regulations. None will be grandfathered in, so some of the locations that were eligible in the temporary program (like the ones on Connecticut Avenue in the rush-hour parking lanes) won't be eligible for a permanent program.

Also, all permits that were issued under the temporary program for outdoor dining on the sidewalk (e.g., Temporary Sidewalk Table Service permits) expired on May 31, 2023 and DDOT is scheduled to conduct a Streatery inspection/enforcement blitz in June for those businesses operating outdoor dining on the sidewalk. All businesses will need to have a sidewalk cafe permit to continue operating in public space, which requires approval by the Public Space Committee at a public hearing. [/quote]
