The purpose of this chapter is to permit and encourage sidewalk use that is compatible with other public uses of the public sidewalk. The Village finds that sidewalk Cafés encourage a pedestrian-oriented environment, help to create a visually attractive atmosphere and promote overall commerce. Regulations and standards for the existence and operation of sidewalk Cafés are necessary to facilitate and ensure a safe environment in these areas. The issuance of a sidewalk Café permit shall not constitute nor shall it be construed to constitute a vacation or abandonment by the Village of its interest in the right-of-way or any easements contained therein. This section is limited to the O-B 2 and the B-3 zoning district.
