California’s Stage Two Phased Reopening Continues

While we are not yet out of the woods, state and local government continue to ease restrictions upon life as we at least used to know it.

As pandemic pressure has eased and public demands have increased, at least 35 counties have announced their ability to accelerate their transition through “Stage 2” of California’s “Pandemic Roadmap”: the reopening of lower-risk workplaces and other spaces.

We also count 17 counties which have rescinded their local orders in order to follow just the statewide guidances:

  • Colusa
  • Calaveras
  • El Dorado
  • Inyo
  • Kern
  • Kings
  • Lake
  • Mono
  • Nevada
  • Placer
  • Riverside
  • San Benito
  •   San Bernardino
  • San Luis Obispo
  • Stanislaus
  • Tehama and
  • Yolo

To our knowledge, and as of June 5, counties with stay at home orders in place include:
