Dear Playhouse Village Businesses,
During these trying times, we want you all to know that the PVA is here to serve you. We are working diligently to put together several resources from local, state, and national entities expressly designed for small businesses and our Village community. The situation continues to be fluid, but we are doing our best to compile this information on our website: www.playhousevillage.org/covid19updates.
Revised Protocols for Restaurants & Breweries
Yesterday afternoon, the City of Pasadena Health Department made additional updates to the Reopening Protocol for Restaurants & Breweries. Updates include:
- Televisions and other screens that broadcast programming must be turned off.
- To achieve 6 feet of distance between customers from different parties, tables must be spaced 8 feet apart when measured from table edge to table edge.
- Restaurants must post signage informing guests that parties are limited to only individuals from the same household.
- Restaurants must post new signage regarding customer mask wearing and hand hygiene.
- Quarantine period reduced from 14 days to 10 days in accordance with the updated Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance.
- Clarification added that employee assessments should also include whether they are currently required to be under isolation or quarantine.
- Temporary outdoor dining structures must adhere to state guidance and be 50% open with no more than 2 non-adjacent, impermeable walls closed.
The complete updated Reopening Protocol checklist for Restaurants is available here. Please print, complete, and post this updated Reopening Protocol checklist at your restaurant. Thank you for doing your part to keep our community safe.
The PVA is committed to supporting our business community in every possible way. Please don’t hesitate to contact the PVA at info@playhousevillage.org with any questions or concerns you may have.
