Orillia’s Economic Recovery Task Force (ERTF) wants your feedback on its initiative to promote bar and restaurant patios throughout the City this summer.
Two surveys have been launched to gather info from both patrons and business owners on the “See You On The Patio” program:
They are:
- Visitor Survey: orillia.ca/patio-visitor-survey
- Business Survey: orillia.ca/patio-business-survey
The initiative was launched in mid-July and has helped promote enhanced activity on restaurant patios, in the downtown core and beyond, in a safe manner.
“The evidence we have seen and the general feedback received indicates the program has been quite successful,” said Councillor. Ted Emond, Chair of the ERTF. “The survey is intended to quantify what we have experienced, learn how we can make improvements and to use that information to plan ahead for next year, as the City continues its efforts towards a longer-term recovery for local businesses.”
