Today Mayor Deborah Frank Feinen issued Emergency Order 20-22 which waives the City’s fee for a sidewalk retail sales area permit. The intent of the Emergency Order is to allow Champaign’s retail stores to more easily offer outdoor sales in accordance with Phase 4 guidelines of the State’s Restore Illinois plan. The fee waiver is in effect through September 30, 2020.
A full copy of Emergency Order 20-22 can be reviewed on the City’s website. For more information about sidewalk retail area regulations please see the City’s Municipal Code Section 30-542.1.
