Summer 2021 Special Use Permits DUE April 15, 2021 City of Leavenworth

The City of Leavenworth is urging local businesses to submit their applications for Summer 2021 Special Use Permits (SUP) by April 15, 2021, to continue utilizing outdoor seating amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This initiative allows for the extension of public right-of-way use for businesses, following the conclusion of the Winter 2020 COVID Special Use Permits. To apply, businesses need to submit a completed Special Use Permit application, an accurate site plan, and a two-million-dollar insurance certificate, which can be referenced through an example provided by the city. Previous site plans are acceptable if there have been no changes, ensuring that businesses can maintain their established layouts. The SUPs will be valid from April 16, 2021, to November 15, 2021, supporting local commerce during the warmer months.

This program is crucial for the economic vitality of Leavenworth's businesses, providing them the opportunity to adapt to changing conditions. For assistance, applicants can reach out to Assistant Planner Nichole Perry, who is available to answer any questions. The city emphasizes the importance of timely applications to ensure compliance and support for local enterprises.
