Executive Gardner held a public information briefing this morning regarding Governor Hogan’s latest revision to lifting restrictions on outdoor seating and face coverings. We will interpret the expectations in the bullet points below:

This applies to OUTDOOR ONLY:

    • NO restriction on seating capacity.
    • NO mask required except for large ticketed venues.
    • NO limit on amount of patrons seated at tables.
    • NO limit on spacing between tables.
    • NO restriction on standing or congregating 

 

Executive Gardner is aligning with Governor Hogan’s latest order.  Both STRONGLY encourage mask wearing where social distancing cannot occur.
