Outdoor Street Dining Still Not on the Menu
Still upset about not being able to provide outdoor street dining in the North End, restaurant owners staged another rally to gather support for their endeavor to have Mayor Michelle Wu reverse her decision to shut down the pilot program.
Owners reminded the public that the North End is the only community throughout the city that is not being allowed to have outdoor street dining.
A lawsuit has been filed by the owner’s claiming discrimination and loss of revenue.
No court ruling has been made at this time and it appears the mayor will not reverse her decision.
