If you are a commercial tenant in California and i

If you are a commercial tenant in California and impacted by the shelter-in-place order, it is possible you are violating certain provisions of your lease, such as continuous operations covenants. Our office has prepared a playbook for tenants, including strategy if you are unable to pay rent:

1. Immediately request landlord to suspend mandatory operating hours.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Expressly reserve all of your rights under your lease and under law when you send a written notice.

3. Check for rental abatement, co-tenancy, force majeure, and lease surrender provisions in your lease.

4. Propose a full rent holiday or extend the term of your lease.

5. Propose that rent holiday period be treated as a loan.

6. Request extensions and TI allowance if you are building out.

7. Argue the doctrine of “impracticability” which may excuse performance under certain circumstances.

8. Read your insurance policy re business interruption coverage.

Please send me your lease if you need advice renegotiating some or all of its terms (yes… this is a good time to renegotiate the ENTIRE lease).

Food and beverage establishments across the US are

Food and beverage establishments across the US are selling #cocktailstogo such as the beautifully packaged two-Step Margarita by @thymebar_nyc in NYC, and Olivette @dantenewyorkcity.

In California, the California Department of Alcoholic Beverages (“ABC”) has now issued new temporary regulations allowing some restaurants to deliver alcoholic beverages (including pre-mixed drinks and cocktails) with food, and allowing payment collection for the alcohol upon delivery. Alcoholic beverages may also be sold at drive-through windows. The licensees must use beverage containers with a secure lid and the alcoholic beverages must be sold with food; alcohol sales may comprise up to 30 percent of the restaurant revenue. The restaurant must post open-container warnings on its premises and on its website. No alcohol deliveries are permitted between 2AM – 6AM. Distilleries may also sell alcohol via curbside pickup and delivery, however they may not exceed the state mandated maximum of 2.25 liters per consumer per day.

PLEASE NOTE: Despite these relaxed measures provided by the ABC, licensees are NOT exempt from local ordinances, zoning restrictions, and conditional use permits. If your local ordinance or CUP prohibits off-site sales of alcohol or restricts your hours of operation, you must comply with such local approval and you are unable to benefit from the ABC relief.

The motivating thing about our profession is that

The motivating thing about our profession is that we all come together in times like these to support one another; it's what we do. And now we turn to Congress to ask for their support with Independent Restaurants. Without relief, doors will close and millions more jobs will be lost. Think of your favorite local restaurant, the one you and your community have counted on for nourishment; the server who knows your children’s names; the bartender who can read your mood; the chef who sends out your favorite extras; and our porters who are integral to everything we do. They nurture; it's in their nature. And now their livelihoods are at stake. Congress: #SaveRestaurants #TooSmallToFail Register at: https://www.saverestaurants.co ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We are so proud of our restaurant clients who, in a matter of a few days, have implemented new take-out options, meal kits, and converted their restaurants into marketplaces. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Congratulations to @cheflunchboxx, who, along with @dominiquecrenn @charlesmyim @mikolorenzo, is providing healthy, affordable, and accessible meals to those in need and doing his part to keep the industry afloat via @vitabowl. It is an organic, all vegan, plant-based menu accessible by delivery.
