COVID-19 July 23 Updates

SLA Guidelines
There are new FAQs for the recent State Liquor Authority guidance that was released last week which include important information about what counts as food under the guidelines.
Here is an important question included in the guidance:

Q: I operate a restaurant or bar, and I understand that I must serve sandwiches, soups, or “other foods” when a patron orders an alcoholic beverage, can you tell me what constitutes “other foods?”

A: “Other foods” are foods which are similar in quality and substance to sandwiches and soups; for example, salads, wings, or hotdogs would be of that quality and substance; however, a bag of chips bowl of nuts, or candy alone are not.
It is also important to note that VFWs, American Legions and other private clubs not open to the public do not have food requirements under the law – so this guidance does not apply to them.

Scam Alert
 The Clinton County Health Department has heard of recent scams in which the caller pretends to be a contact tracer and asks for credit card information.

**NEVER release your credit card, banking, insurance, or social security information to anyone whose identity you have not verified.** When in doubt, do not release the information and notify the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office. 
The Plattsburgh City Police also posted on Facebook that they have received recent reports from City of Plattsburgh Municipal Lighting customers that persons claiming to represent NYSEG have called them asking for personal financial information as part of a “phishing” style scam. 
Please know that no one from the City of Plattsburgh Municipal Lighting Dept or NYSEG will call you asking for any type of personal financial information.
If you receive any of these types of calls, immediately end the call and notify either MLD or NYSEG.
