Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Good Day Marie, First and foremost the Danville Area Chamber of Commerce would like to thank and applaud the Town and the Council for their active engagement and action in support of all of our businesses in the Danville Area during these trying times. The swift action and partnership between the Town Administration, Town Council and Chamber, to expedite permitting, communicate, educate and advocate for and with the businesses has been instrumental in their survival. In that same vain, and after speaking with the local businesses, the Chamber finds the extension of the current Outdoor Dining program as a crucial need for the survival of our businesses. Danville is an attractor of people and at the center of that attraction is our Foodie rich community. Our restaurants have been able to survive through their ability to expand outside and through that our community has been afforded its own “social bubble”. A place to feel normal, to escape online learning and Zoom meetings and to be served with the comfort of home, friends and family. We need that to continue. Not only for the financial future of our businesses and our community but for the psychological and emotional well-being of our residents as they are the connective tissue that makes Danville…Danville. Thank you again for your collective commitment to our home! Best Regards, Zae Perrin President/CEO Danville Area Chamber of Commerce 117 E Town & Country Drive Danville, CA 94526 ( 925) 785-1499 1 2
