Sidewalk cafes

There are a few tables sitting outside of restaurants in Fargo, but the City should develop zoning and design standards that actively encourage sidewalk cafes, especially downtown. Sioux Falls has great sidewalk cafes on the public sidewalks downtown. And the City of St. Petersburg, Florida, in fact has a dog-friendly sidewalk cafe ordinance. Their sidewalk cafes have dog biscuits next to the cash registers and water dishes by the unbrella tables. Amenities like that tend to make people enjoy the city - get two people with their dogs sitting near each other over a glass of wine, and you have an automatic conversation starter.
