Riviera Village outdoor dining deck program
Summary
The dining decks that transformed Riviera Village got a five-year extension, keeping 47 parking spaces occupied. Retail owners complain about parking shortages — one 30-year shop closed over it — while restaurants credit the decks for booming business. The council wants a fee review and is studying a possible underground garage.
