Imperial County health order update now in effect
Residents may now engage in curbside retail
EL CENTRO, Calif. (KYMA, KECY)- A list of new exceptions to Imperial County's health orders are now in effect.
The new changes expand the county's list of exceptions to include activities now allowed by the California Department of Public Health and the State Public Health Officer Order.
Residents are already able to leave their homes for essential tasks like grocery shopping, medication pick-up, and reporting to essential employment.
Now, residents may also engage in curbside retail from lower-risk businesses.
The county says this includes, but is not limited to, clothing stores, music stores, bookstores, and florists.
Face coverings in public and social distancing is still required.
Non-essential businesses will remain closed, with the exception of those allowed to open under the State’s Resilience Roadmap and Imperial County’s Roadmap to Recovery
Under both, the county says additional sectors, businesses, or activities will progressively be allowed to reopen with certain modifications once set parameters are met.
