"The Latest Openings"
Last updated 6/25/2020 at 10:23am
We continue to make progress in reopening San Diego County, while also keeping our communities safe. The latest openings include nail salons, facial salons, estheticians, skin care, cosmetology, massages, tattoo/piercing parlors and other personal services. Wedding ceremonies that follow the religious services guidance are also allowed.
We continue to increase our testing capacity in San Diego County, with over 4,000 San Diegans tested every day. The rate continues to remain steady at 3% of those testing positive for COVID-19.
I also teamed up with County Supervisor Kristin Gaspar to relax zoning requirements while businesses adapt to the new social distancing requirements to protect their customers and employees. This includes temporarily allowing restaurants and other businesses in the unincorporated area to use parking and sidewalks as dining/commercial areas, allowing curbside pick-up, possibly allowing road closures in commercial districts to encourage additional pedestrian/commercial activity, and much more.
We continue to make progress, San Diego County. Let’s keep the momentum!
