Judge plans to allow bars to go to 50 percent
From County Judge Steve Young Wednesday night:
Wednesday we have one new PCR case and three antigen cases to report. Those being monitored were increased substantially by fourteen. No one was admitted to a hospital. We tested six individuals with one positive result. Thursday we will test at the Fire station in Cameron from 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
Governor Abbott issued Executive Order 32, which allows bars to reopen at 50% capacity, on October 14,, so long at the bar is not in a high hospitalization area and the County Judge approves. Milam County is not in a high hospitalization area and I plan to sign an order to allow the bars in Milam County to reopen, pursuant to restrictions of the Governor’s order.
