How do I know my business qualifies for the program?

For expansions on private property – If you have a valid City of Coquitlam business licence, a valid Provincial Liquor License Amendment (for those businesses serving alcohol) and have unobstructed space on private property adjacent to your business, you will likely qualify for the program. Staff will review your submission and if acceptable, will grant you a temporary permit for the outdoor expansion area.

For expansion on public property – If you have a valid City of Coquitlam business licence, and have a space fronting your business that meets the established guideline for this program, you will likely qualify.

This program also applies to retail businesses wishing to increase their sales footprint outside their store.
