Downtown patios back on the menu: COUNCIL AGENDA

City officials are being lenient on a patio bylaw that has been put in place to allow for snow clearance.

The bylaw states before March 31, patios on city property can't be up during the night. That means they would have to be dismantled every night.

But unseasonably record-setting warm weather has every restaurant chomping for March business. Steve Monuk runs 15 restaurants in the ByWard Market and knew the warm weather was going to present a problem.

"I know they are looking into the issue and maybe even changing some dates," he said.

The city has decided to send out a letter of permission to at least one pub allowing them to open their patio without a fine. The city also said nobody has been fined for opening the patios before the fine deadline.

For some bar owners, opening a patio early is still worth the fine. The business would be so much higher than the charge.

Also, some large patios can take up to a week to put together, which makes it impossible to dismantle every night.

"Ottawa is patio-crazy. They love to get out of the winter and into the summer as quickly as possible," said Ken Goodhue, the operating partner at the Highlander Pub.

The fine can be up to $5,000 but Goodhue said the St. Patrick's Day business alone made up for that.

Don’t discount patio fee discounts just yet: OUR OPINION

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN - sshinneman@shawmedia.com

Local restaurant owners are taking advantage of unseasonably warm temperatures to lure customers in, and then out.

They say, March is teasing us, said George Karas, owner of The Village Squire in Crystal Lake. I bet you in a week or two it wont be like this, so we want to sit outside.

Karas is among a number of local restaurant owners whove made hurried arrangements to open their outdoor seating earlier than planned. And he, like others, has found the option to sit outside is enough to coax more people out for an evening.

Karas said he was originally planning to open the patio at his location in Crystal Lake on April 15, but adjusted that date based on the weather and multiple requests from customers in order to open Friday.

The weather definitely has people coming out more and enjoying the outdoor [seating], he said. They say the mai tais and rum barrels taste better on the patio.

Its a welcomed bump in sales in a month that, last year, didnt see a single day reach 70 degrees. Last week, the thermometer read 80 four days in a row, according to AccuWeather.com.

We have seen a jump, especially with the local high school right there, said Christina Reyna, general manager at Trio Grille in Marengo, which is located near Marengo Community High School. A lot of teachers, when they get out, come over here so they can sit outside.

Reyna said the patio at Trio Grille had a busy week, including a party of about 20 seated outside Saturday night.

Its been similarly busy in other parts of the county. Both La Petite Creperie and Bistrot, in Woodstock, and LEiffel Bistrot, in South Barrington, have seen sales increase with the temperatures.

Restaurants open patios to take advantage of warmth

Rob Ferguson Queens Park Bureau

Ontario wont ban smoking on bar and restaurant patios, Health Minister Deb Matthews says, despite a push to do so by two health agencies.

Its not something under active consideration right now but I know many municipalities are looking at strengthening the anti-smoking provisions, she said Tuesday after calls for action from Cancer Care Ontario and Public Health Ontario.

New Democrat Leader Andrea Horwath said the Liberal government in a minority government situation is trying to play it safe instead of taking action to improve public health to save tax dollars on medical treatments.

If its harder for people to find places to light up, then theyre going to light up less often, she told reporters, crediting the two provincial agencies for pushing the envelope.

Matthews countered that the wide-ranging Smoke-Free Ontario Act in place for several years set a minimum standard for banning smoking in most public indoor places.

If municipalities want to build on that and do more, then thats a conversation I think they should be having at the community level.

The problem with that approach is different municipalities end up with different standards, leading to a patchwork of different laws, said Horwath.

Two reports from the health-care agencies also called for hiking tobacco taxes, setting minimum prices for alcoholic beverages and making physical education mandatory throughout high school measures intended to take aim at the 79 per cent of deaths in Ontario from largely preventable illnesses, such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes.

Theyre giving us some very good advice. We would much rather keep people healthy and out of our health-care system than treat them when they get sick.
