Discussion and Possible Action Re: Extending outdoor seating areas until Dane County allows indoor restaurant and bar capacity at 100%. Staff has received a request from the Hop Haus to modify the time period for the temporary outdoor seating/dinning. In the previous approval, the Hop Haus and other businesses could use the outdoor area until the middle of November. Due to the continued Dane County restrictions on indoor capacities, Staff is recommending modifications to the duration, and specifically recommending approving the outdoor seating for the Hop Haus, Toot and Kate’s and Cahoots until the Dane County Order is removed or indoor seating is allowed at 100% capacity. Motion: To recommend to the Common Council to approve extending the outdoor seating areas for the Hop Haus, Toot and Kate’s Wine Bar and Cahoots until Dane County allows indoor restaurant and bar capacity at 100%
