Come and get it Escondido Tamale Festival family. Help out your local restaurants and do it outdoors on Grand avenue
Starting Friday, July 10 the City of Escondido will be reducing the travel lanes on Grand Avenue between Maple Street and Juniper Street in order to allow restaurants to create temporary outdoor dining locations. Traffic will be limited to one travel lane in each direction with the other lane serving as parking.
This effort is in response to the State of CA order on July 7 prohibiting indoor dining that has had an immediate impact on local businesses.
City staff and the Escondido Downtown Business Association have been working quickly to streamline the permitting process that would normally take much longer in order to assist restaurants in staying open and operating outdoors.
