While Kentucky continues to move forward, Gov. Beshear reminded Kentuckians that this does not mean business will be back as usual.
(Frankfort, Ky.) - On Thursday, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear released a new timeline for reopening more of the state's industries.
Gov. Beshear announced the second phase of reopening the commonwealth’s economy, but urged patience and caution.
The new "tentative" dates for reopening are:
- May 22 – Restaurants, with limited 33% capacity and outdoor seating
- June 1 – Movie theaters, fitness centers
- June 11 – Campgrounds, public and private
- June 15 – Child care, with reduced capacity; and potentially low-touch and outdoor youth sports
All businesses should continue to follow the 10 rules of staying healthy at work and industry-specific guidance.
“That is when we are opening our restaurants on a limited inside capacity plus unlimited outdoor seating if they can get the spacing that is needed,” Gov. Beshear said. “This allows restaurants to be open for Memorial Day weekend, but please be careful.”
Phase 3 will be starting Wednesday, July 1. This will allow bars to open with limitations and gatherings up to 50 people will no longer be prohibited.
While Kentucky continues to move forward, Gov. Beshear reminded Kentuckians that this does not mean business will be back as usual until COVID-19 has been defeated.
“We have been up against big adversaries here in Kentucky. We are going to succeed against this adversary as well,” Gov. Beshear said.
