Title, Order
Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Permit with Half Acre, Inc. to Allow an Outdoor Seating Area on
City Property
This Order would authorize the City Manager to execute a seating permit with Half Acre, Inc. to have
an outdoor seating area behind its building at 190 Harlow Street. The area, along with a structure
attached to the building, would extend into the City's Lower Abbott parking lot. The structure will
need approval for design review purposes by the City's Historic Preservation Commission.
A number of concerns about the proposed seating area were raised by citizens during discussions
before the City Councilors. These concerns primarily related to noise and trash. Under the terms of
the proposed outdoor seating permit, alcohol service and consumption would have to stop by
midnight. The City would also require two employees to be stationed outside while the seating area
is being used. Half Acre would be responsible to ensure that the area is clear of trash. The permit
will contain terms and conditions designed to minimize the impact on the abutting residential areas.
