LA County moves to reopen more business sectors

Los Angeles County has indicated that it is moving forward with Phase 3 of the State’s Resilience Roadmap and reopening more economic and community sectors on June 12th. The Los Angeles Department of Public Health announced that the Health Officer Order will be modified to include infection control and distancing requirements for re-opening the following sectors:

  • Gyms and fitness facilities
  • Professional sports without live audiences
  • Day camps
  • Museums, galleries, zoos, and aquariums
  • Campgrounds, RV parks, and outdoor recreation
  • Music, film and television production
  • Hotels, lodging and short-term rentals for tourism and individual travel

Going to the gym, visiting a museum, or going to camp will be very different than it was before the pandemic. Each sector reopening will have strict infection control directives in place and can be reviewed at the County’s COVID-19 website. Just as is required for all out-of-home activities, visitors and staff will have to practice physical distancing and wear cloth face coverings. There will be limited capacity and enhanced cleaning and disinfecting procedures. People feeling sick should stay home

These additional re-openings follow other significant elements of the economy and community that have begun reopening and operating with limits and safeguards, including hair salons, barber shops, religious services, retail, restaurants, beaches, and trails. Still closed are nail salons, tattoo shops, bars and wineries, movie theaters, live performance theaters, entertainment centers, concert halls and venues, stadiums, arenas, gaming facilities, theme parks and festivals.

The County continues to monitor the spread of the virus and the capacity of the healthcare system to provide residents with essential services and states residents must continue to practice physical distancing, wear cloth face coverings, and follow public health directives.
