City of Fall River to Provide Outdoor Heaters for Local Restaurants
(Fall River, MA- November 13th, 2020)- In September, the City of Fall River was awarded funding through the Massachusetts Shared Streets and Spaces Grant Program. This funding was used to create an outdoor dining patio at Thyme Blossom on Purchase Street and to aid the City of Fall River in the purchase of outdoor space heaters for use in outdoor dining. Around 30 heaters were purchased by the City with the intent to distribute them to local restaurants.
National shortages and backorders for these heaters delayed their arrival, but they are now in the City’s possession, assembled and ready to be distributed.
Restaurants in the City of Fall River who have outdoor dining capabilities are invited to contact the City of Fall River to reserve the rental of space heaters. These space heaters will be allocated to restaurants on a first-come, first-served basis at no cost to the restaurant. To reserve heaters, restaurants should contact Director of Facilities Maintenance, Chris Gallagher at
508-922-6715 or 508-324-2226.
