FORT BEND COUNTY – Business owners in Richmond, Pearland, Conroe and Katy all had different guidelines in place Wednesday as the mask mandate ended in Texas.
At Treasure Hunter’s Gallery in Richmond, customers and owner Marlene Dame were excited about the state reopening.
“I feel like the governor said ‘Hey, let’s do this for many people. We’ve got to move forward,’” Dame said.
Dame said operating a business under COVID-19 restrictions has been a roller coaster.
“There are some days you open the door and you just pray people are going to come in,” she said.
