Coronavirus crisis: Fredericksburg to enforce occupancy limits in bars, restaurants

Fredericksburg City officials have taken their first public health action since declaring a state of emergency: The city will limit the number of customers in a restaurant or bar to just 10 people per establishment. 

The move is in response to recent announcements made by both Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam and President Donald Trump, both of whom ordered identical restrictions. 

“We know that this action will bring additional hardships in our community. But acting tomorrow is not an option. As the major gathering place in our region, the City of Fredericksburg must do its part to slow the spread of COVID-19 - a virus we already know is here. I deeply regret that this action must be taken and know that it will have a major impact on our amazing business community, but I do ask for understanding as we work around the clock to keep our residents and community safe,” stated City Manager Tim Baroody.
