Our small business community in Doylestown Borough needs your support now more than ever. Local business owners and their families have struggled with the impact of COVID-19. These same businesses support many non-profit organizations and community causes throughout the year. Now it is our turn to help them get back on their feet and on the road to reopening.
Doylestown Borough stands behind our business community and has launched the initiative Operation Doylestown to bring your favorite stores and restaurants outdoors, creating a safe and socially-distanced experience. Join us in town for expanded outdoor seating, sidewalk shopping, outdoor marketplaces, and more. Together we are working to create a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for you.
Local business owners are encouraged to get involved in the outdoor marketplaces that are being held as part of Operation Doylestown. We are limiting involvement to retail and dining small businesses with a physical location in Doylestown Borough. The marketplaces are starting in limited areas for safety reasons and to reduce the disruption to businesses that remain reliant on curbside pickup. Therefore, we have limited space at each marketplace. We are committed to opening opportunities for all qualified businesses. As it becomes safe and viable to do so, the marketplaces can expand to larger areas and welcome more local businesses. We will update our information, guidelines, and registration process as the situation evolves. There will be no charge to participate. We do ask all businesses to follow some simple guidelines.
