Temporary Outdoor Guidelines for Businesses

At  the July 31 City Council Meeting, the City Council approved a resolution that supports our local businesses during this difficult time. The resolution temporarily suspends code enforcement actions against businesses such as salons/barbers, personal care services, gyms/fitness centers and offices that are not currently permitted to provide outdoor operations, while State and County Health Orders restrict indoor operations. Business owners/operators will need to receive authorization from their property owner to set up their outdoor business operations on private property and ensure that they comply with the temporary outdoor guidelines set by the City.

Each of the business owners/operators must be submit the acknowledgment form attached to the guidelines to planning@fostercity.org before setting up their outdoor business operations. Guidelines for the different business types are attached below.
