Sec. 250.901. - Intent.

The primary purpose of public sidewalks is for use by pedestrian traffic. However, sidewalk cafes on public sidewalks may promote the public interest by contributing to an active and attractive pedestrian environment. Therefore, to permit such activity, it is necessary to provide reasonable regulation of sidewalk cafes to protect the public health, safety and welfare while promoting safe vehicular and pedestrian traffic flow.
