As Long Beach has substantially similar COVID-19 data patterns to Los Angeles County with numbers currently at alarming levels, the City will be aligning with the County to prohibit in-person dining at restaurants, breweries, wineries and bars beginning 10:00p.m. Wednesday, November 25, 2020 for the next three weeks, at minimum, to slow the spread of transmission in Long Beach. The updated health order will be forthcoming.

While in-person dining is temporarily prohibited, the City will continue to receive and internally process paperwork related to the Open Streets Parklet Permits. All business owners with existing sidewalk dining or parklets are encouraged to submit their Open Streets Parklet Application in full to goactivelb@longbeach.gov, in order to promptly receive a parklet permit once outdoor, in-person dining is allowed again in the City.

There are several loan and grant options available that may be used towards parklet modifications. For more information on these programs, please visit the COVID-19 Business Support Page.
