For the first time in more than 10 weeks, people can legally eat inside Michigan restaurants again.
Michigan’s dine-in ban expired at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 31. It started Nov. 18 in response to a second wave of high rates of COVID-19 spread.
Until Monday, Michigan was one of only two states still prohibiting indoor dining statewide. While dining rooms are back open, there are still strict limits restaurants must follow.

IRON MOUNTAIN The Dickinson County Board adopted a resolution Monday on a 4-1 vote that acknowledges COVID-19 as a serious threat but asserts Michigan health orders have placed undue burdens and restrictions on local businesses and employees.
It says, in effect, the county won’t interfere with establishments that operate with proper health precautions, including personal protective equipment and social distancing. The resolution, however, is largely symbolic as other governmental units including the state have their own enforcement powers.
The board’s resolution in support of businesses and organizations says individual entities have full liability for their decisions and actions. It also states Michigan law still applies, as does the authority of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and Michigan Liquor Control Commission.
