North Coast Small Business Pandemic Update
Governor's Office Announces Statewide Closures for Some Business Types Due to Spike in COVID-19 Infection Rates.

California Governor Gavin Newsom announced a statewide order to close bars and transition six industry sectors to outdoor-only operations to limit spread of COVID-19. Local implementation will take full effect Friday.

Outdoor service only--with safety precautions--is allowed for restaurants, bars and breweries, wineries & tasting rooms, movie theaters, family entertainment centers, zoos and museums, and cardrooms. Bars that do not have a permit to serve food will have to close

Carry out, curbside pickup, and delivery are also still allowed with physical distancing and other safety precautions in place.
