LANE COUNTY, Ore. -- Businesses in Lane County reacted to what it will mean when they can finally move from the extreme risk level to high risk on Friday.
For restaurants and other dining facilities, moving to the high risk category means that indoor dining is allowed at 25 percent capacity. Previously, in extreme risk, indoor dining was prohibited.
For indoor recreational centers, this also means they can allow up to a 25 percent maximum capacity. Previously, indoor recreational centers were only allowed to have up to six people at once if the facility is larger than 500 square feet.
