Marin Progresses from Red Tier to Orange

Improved COVID-19 indicators prompt a more open economy

San Rafael, CA – The State of California has announced that Marin County will be moving from “red” to “orange” status in the Blueprint for a Safer Economy during the COVID-19 pandemic, effective Wednesday, March 24.

The move from tier 2 or “substantial risk” status to the less restrictive tier 3 or “moderate risk” level is based on consecutive weeks of progress in Marin’s coronavirus case statistics. Marin joins Santa Clara and San Francisco as Bay Area counties moving to tier 3 this week. San Mateo County achieved orange status on March 17.

The primary changes allowed under the state order as Marin moves into tier 3:

• Retail & grocery stores: can expand indoor capacity to 100%.
• Restaurants – indoor dining: can expand indoor capacity to 50% or 200 people (whichever is fewer).
• Museums & movie theaters: can expand indoor capacity to 50% or 200 people (whichever is fewer).
• Houses of worship: can expand indoor capacity to 50% or 200 people (whichever is fewer).
• Weddings/funerals: can expand indoor capacity to 50% or 200 people (whichever is fewer).
• Family recreation / entertainment facilities: can expand indoor capacity to 25%.
• Gyms & fitness studios: can expand indoor capacity to 25% and reopen indoor pools.
• Breweries/wineries that do not serve food: can expand indoor capacity to 25% or 100 people (whichever is fewer).
• Bars that do not serve food: can operate outdoors only.
• Non-essential offices may reopen (but working remotely is still encouraged).
• Higher education: can expand indoor capacity to 50% for indoor lectures.

Changes to business sector guidelines are available on the Marin Recovers website or the California Blueprint for a Safer Economy website.

Help Keep Sausalito Safe for Residents and Visitors Alike

Here in Sausalito while the views are plenty, we have narrow streets and sidewalks, tiny hidden paths, shops and restaurants. It is our intention to keep all who visit and reside here safe especially during peak visitor season.

Californians are required¹ to wear face coverings in high-risk settings as the state continues to reopen amid the coronavirus pandemic.

In the latest guidance, the Department of Public Health explained, “People will be required to wear masks or other coverings in public spaces, including while taking public transportation, seeking medical care, shopping and in most work scenarios.’

‘Children under 2 are exempted from the rules, as are people eating or drinking in restaurants provided they can maintain a minimum 6-foot distance from other customers and staff who are not members of the same household.”

Why wear a face covering? The use of face coverings by everyone can limit the release of infected droplets when talking, coughing, and/or sneezing, as well as reinforce physical distancing.

Governor Gavin Newsom explained in an interview with NPR², "the most impactful thing we can do, short of going back to a stay-at-home order, is wearing face coverings when we can't practice physical distancing."

Please be courteous to fellow visitors and residents by wearing a face covering, and help prevent the spread of Covid-19 … when you Visit Sausalito!
