Governor Andrew Cuomo has announced that the North Country is on track to move into PHASE FOUR on Friday.
The North Country Chamber of Commerce Reports
Initially, Phase Four makes a limited set of additional categories of activities eligible for reopening:
- Higher Education
- Low-Risk Outdoor Arts and Entertainment
- Low-Risk Indoor Arts and Entertainment
- Media Production
Guidelines and Safety Plan templates are now available for these categories. The LOOKUP TOOL can also be used to determine if a business or operation is now allowed to resume.
Malls, Gyms and Movie Theaters are not cleared to reopen as part of Phase Four at this time. The state is continuing to study these activities. We remain hopeful that guidelines can be developed and issued soon.
The cap on social gatherings in Phase Four regions is raised from the current 25 people to 50.
Indoor religious gatherings in Phase Four are allowed up to 33% occupancy, an increase from 25%.
We will continue to provide up-to-date information and guidelines in the coming days and weeks as they become available.
