General Information

On July 13, 2020, the Ventura City Council unanimously approved the extension of the pilot program to allow business throughout the City of Ventura to expand their business operations, with a permit, as part of the city’s expanded Temporary Outdoor Business Expansion Program. The program will provide more space to conduct business using social distancing practices.

Businesses interested in participating in the program are encouraged to review the program requirements and complete and submit an application for expansion onto public or private property. There is no cost to apply for this program. 

For businesses interested in temporarily expanding their recreation and fitness classes into a City park, submit this permit application to Allyson Desbaillets at adesbaillets@cityofventura.ca.gov.
