How It Works
It’s without question how hard the COVID-19 pandemic has hit our society, although no one has felt the impact most apparent than those in the hospitality sector. Not only effecting the everyday hours and accessibility of the business, but most importantly it has restricted the growth of the hospitality industry altogether.
Victoria will remodel its roads and footpaths to draw new blueprints for the expanded outdoor dining plan. The new outdoor dining infrastructure is a part of the state’s third step in the ‘Roadmap to Recovery’ process. The plan introduces a mandatory outdoor dining and seating to allow the Victoria’s lockdown restrictions to be lifted while still achieving a COVID-safe environment.
In this plan, local councils will receive funding from a $29.5 million share pot to help implement the streamlined licencing, planning and permit to make outdoor dining safe and practical. On top of that, a further $59 million will be used to issue grants for hospitality businesses to fund the purchasing of outdoor furniture and equipment to assist with the transition to COVID-safe outdoor dining.
No entry/eligibility details have yet to be confirmed by Vic Gov other than “grants will go towards hospitality businesses with an annual payroll of less than $3 million”. Experts advise to keep an eye out for further updates and complete details. Find here).
