With the governor closing restaurants and limiting them to delivery and takeout during coronavirus, it’s obviously going to take its toll on some of the restaurants in smaller cities that don’t necessarily have the savings to get them through the troubling times. So how exactly are they adapting?

Snohomish Mayor John Kartak joined the Jason Rantz Show on KTTH to discuss their new curbside program.

“So this is a really big thing for us because the sales tax that comes into pay our bills for our police and our streets and parks and things like that, the majority of our funding comes from sales tax. And so with everybody shut down, this is a big deal,” he said.

“Businesses can offer curbside services, which obviously is something that lends itself well to our restaurants. We’ve been able to section off certain parking spots … that are in front of some of the businesses that want to participate.”

Mayor Kartak says that approximately 30 are signed up to participate so far, and numerous others are showing interest.

“We even had a plumber call and ask if he can participate. I don’t know to what degree that works.”

Though restaurants are adapting, it’s coming at a time when many people are being encouraged to hunker down in their homes, but despite this, Mayor Kartak is still seeing a great deal of support from the community for restaurants who are struggling.

“The community is really pouring out for this, and I even shared it on my personal Facebook page and everybody’s excited about this,” he said. “Everybody’s nervous. But everybody also knows that life has to go on. And there’s always a way to adapt to the situation for what it is.”
