Santa Clara County and Silicon Valley’s largest city, San Jose, on Tuesday both unanimously approved new caps on how much money delivery services like DoorDash and Uber Eats can charge struggling restaurants during the COVID-19 crisis.

A temporary county ordinance — adopted as an emergency regulation tied to the county’s coronavirus pandemic response — will cap delivery fees at 15% of the purchase price for orders from any restaurant in the county. The ordinance is set to expire when restaurants are permitted to resume indoor dining at full capacity or at the end of the county’s emergency declaration.
