GOVERNOR DeSANTIS MOVES TO PHASE THREE
On September 25, 2020, Governor Ron DeSantis issued Executive Order 20-244 and announced the implementation of Phase Three of reopening Florida, effective immediately. Restaurants, bars, retail businesses, gyms and fitness centers, salons, theaters, galleries, and other businesses may operate at full capacity. Large venues should consider operating at reduced capacity and should continue following social distancing protocols. Businesses should continue to maintain sanitation practices for the safety of patrons and employees. Click to read DeSantis’ Plan for Florida’s Recovery.
CITY OF SANIBEL, AND LEE AND COLLIER COUNTIES LIFT MORE RESTRICTIONS
On September 29, 2020, Mayor Kevin Ruane issued Proclamation 20-079, which removes fines for violations of the face-covering mandate per the governor’s order and also amends previous prohibitions related to parking and possession, and use of alcohol on City-owned beaches.
The Florida Department of Health updates its COVID-19 reports to include the number of cases per day by city, in addition to the number of cases per county, and statewide totals. The Florida Department of Health does not provide any information other than what appears on these reports.
