COVID-19 RESPONSE RECOVERY PLAN May 12, 2020 The city of Poulsbo’s response to open our businesses in safe ways and provide safe spaces for our citizens. recovery@cityofpoulsbo.com 0

April 29, 2020 (revised May 11, 2020) To the Council: As the City of Poulsbo moves forward trying to cope with the Governor’s “S tay Home, Stay Healthy ” order, I have been working diligently trying to figure out next steps for our community. My perception is that we will eventually reopen our businesses, but they must reopen in a very different way to maintain physical distancing. It is all about physical distancing: maintaining six feet of separation, washing hands, wearing face masks, staying home (quarantining) if we are sick, and making sure our work force (including the private sector of Poulsbo) has adequate personal protective equipment (PPE). All these concepts must be in place, and enforced, before we can begin to address our current situation. So how do we do this in Poulsbo? The following is a mitigation plan for the COVID-19 pandemic. First, I must review a key business concept: all retail and restaurant profitability is often based on space. For restaurants and bars, they rely on how many people can they serve, how many tabletops they can maintain, and how quickly they can turn a table. It is about space. For retailers, the same dynamics apply: how many shelves can they maintain? how many items can they display? how many registers are open? This is one of the reasons why commercial rentals are based on the size of the commercial space. What happens when businesses are asked to create greater space for their customers to maintain six feet of separation? Several of our small business owners have already said it will be impossible for them to make more space. They cannot change their business model to accommodate the separation. Their physical locations are too small, and they cannot create more space and still maintain profitability. So So, wha hat can can we do e do? We We can can gi give ve the he bu busi sine ness sses es more spa e space. ce. Poulsbo. We We mus must re reassure re both th the e busines ess o owner ers and th thei eir r customer tomers it it is is safe t e to d do b business ess i in P Here is what the City of Poulsbo can do for the downtown businesses: 1. We allow the historic downtown district to assume and use the parking spaces on Front Street and Jensen to expand their business footprint. The businesses will “spill out” into the parking spaces, allowing more physical space in the restaurant and retail locations . 2. The same would apply for those businesses directly adjoining Anderson Parkway (The Slippery Pig, Brass Kraken, Mora, The Loft, JJ’s Fish House, That’s Some Italian , etc.). For example, The Slippery Pig could use the parking in Little Anderson Parkway, The Loft and Brass Kraken could use the motorcycle parking near the Port, and JJ’s Fish House could use the parallel parking directly in front of their building. 1
