Hamburger Harry’s wants sidewalk dining

Summer is almost here, and Hamburger Harry’s on Market St. near 24th Ave. wants to take advantage of the sunny weather.

The hamburger joint has submitted a request to the city for a sidewalk cafe permit. The city is accepting comments through March 4th. Last summer, Mayor Nickels proposed reducing turnaround time for permits and relaxing requirements on businesses to encourage more outdoor seating. The city council passed the ordinance in October.
