UPDATE/CORRECTION: Solano County says Thursday’s FOX40 TV news report and Councilwoman Moy were incorrect:
From the Solano County Press Release late on May 7:
“The FOX 40 News report and comments by Fairfield Councilwomen Moy are incorrect. The County Public Health Officer has not indicated restaurants can or will open on Monday, May 11. The question Ms. Moy asked during a call with elected officials in Solano County was when could or would restaurants be able to open. The response was restaurants are in the medium-risk businesses category, meaning there is greater risk of spread of the disease in dine-in settings, and that the medium-risk category criteria is still being developed and would be shared with the Board and potentially could take affect later in the week.”
