In response to the rising number of COVID cases locally, Napa County has moved back two steps to the Purple Tier, the most restrictive category on the state’s color-coded guidelines. The new guidelines – which go into effect Tuesday, November 17th – will have the following impact on local businesses:
· Restaurants, wineries and fitness centers can only operate outdoors
· Bars and breweries will have to close
· Retail can operate indoors with a maximum of 25% capacity
· Lodging can remain open but with modifications
· Places of worship can only meet outdoors
· Hair salons, barbershops, massage centers and tattoo parlors can remain indoors, but with modifications
The change in business restrictions comes following a record 251 new COVID in the county last week. By comparison, the county had only 58 cases during one week this time last month.
