New Stay-Home Order Starts Tomorrow: What’s Open?
The Stay-Home order goes into effect in Marin County tomorrow (Tuesday) at 12-noon. We understand the State’s Regional Stay-Home Order is has left some room for interpretation and have been doing what we can to navigate questions received by our call center (415-473-7191) and our COVID-19 response team (contact them here).
The state has created a helpful FAQ on their Regional Stay-Home Order information webpage and we have updated the “Guidelines for Businesses” section of MarinRecovers.com to help guide industries about necessary business changes. As we continue to receive clarification from the state regarding those “gray area” questions, we’ll continue to update those resources at MarinRecovers.com.
In addition, two webinars will be held this week to help provide further clarification. Find details for those two events below.
