Governor DeSantis's
Phase 2 Executive Order
takes effect tomorrow, June 5
in Florida (with the exception of 3 counties: Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach).
- Bars may operate at 50% of indoor capacity (excluding staff). Outdoor seating is permitted with appropriate social distancing (CDC recommendation of 6-feet). Nightclubs are not included in this Executive Order.
- Bar seating will be allowed at bars, restaurants, and other establishments. Service is only allowed at bars if the patron is seated.
- Entertainment businesses, such as movie theaters, concert houses, auditoriums, playhouses, and arcades may operate at 50% of their building capacity with appropriate social distancing between groups and appropriate sanitation.
- Personal services, including but not limited to tattooing, body piercing, acupuncture, tanning, and massage may operate with appropriate safety guidelines as outlined by the Department of Health.
- Pari-mutuel facilities may seek to operate by submitting a written request by the County to the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. In Florida, pari-mutuel wagering is authorized for horse racing, harness horse racing, quarter horse racing, greyhound racing, jai alai games, and cardroom poker games.
- The new order encourages all people to avoid congregating in crowds of more than 50 people – this is up 5 times from the current recommendation of 10 people.
