This is part of the Town’s “Lift Up Local” initiative, which was designed by North Hempstead’s internal Business Recovery Response Workgroup. The group’s goal is to find ways to help businesses that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Workgroup, which includes members of the Town Board, have helped establish dining in local parks, expanded outdoor dining programs, created a “parklet” sidewalk dining extension program as well as facilitated street closures to help attract customers.
