Harrison, OH—The Harrison City Council has moved forward with plans to establish a designated outdoor refreshment area, or DORA, in Harrison’s historic downtown district. A DORA allows people to enjoy alcoholic beverages while walking between participating establishments.
The City still needs approval from the State of Ohio, erect signs, and purchase designated cups before the DORA is put in place. It may be a month or more before the DORA is established, but it’s expected to bring more foot traffic to Harrison’s downtown businesses. Diners, shoppers, and visitors will purchase the designated cups at participating businesses, which so far include 1860 Taproom & Bottleshop, Coffee Peddlar, Heist + Co., Market Street Grille, and Valley House.
