Chapter 19 - HEALTH, SAFETY, AND WELFARE

In an effort to provide clarification on the Emergency Order,restaurants with drive-thrus MAY NOT ALLOW ANYONE INSIDE THE RESTAURANT. The language in the original Order allowing five people inside at a time to pick up orders, as long as they stay six feet apart from each other ONLY applies to restaurants without a drive-thru.
