April 28 - New State Health Order
Friends,
Below is the State’s new health order for April 30th till May 15th. It is very much as I expected and predicted with regard to most businesses, retail stores, non-emergency medical procedures and our beaches. I was surprised that “close contact service providers” such as salons and barber shops, as well as gyms and fitness centers were not allowed to open at all. I had expected they would be allowed to open, but with more extensive restrictions and limitations. I also was surprised that restaurants were not allowed to open for in-person dining if they could adequately do so and meet restrictions. Based on what I know, I fully expect these businesses to be able to open on May 15th with restrictions if our numbers continue to go in the manner we expect.
