Now more than ever it’s important to support local business! In an effort to deflect the financial impact of COVID-19, the City of Tigard and the entire community are working together to gather a map of Tigard businesses offering outdoor dining, takeout, delivery, gift cards or otherwise getting creative to continue operating. Why? Because ordering takeout/delivery and/or gift certificates today can help ease the loss of revenue businesses are experiencing due to reduced demand from COVID-19.
