Serving The Carolinas Since 1931 "If it's Metal "If it's Metal...We Buy It We Buy It...Top Price!" Top Price!" By Loretta Cozart Phase I Executive Order No.138 was issued by Governor Cooper on May 5 and re- vised Executive Order No.131 regarding specific requirements for retail busi- nesses that can be open to customers. Other businesses were impacted by the order, as well. The new order went into effect on Friday, May 8 at 5 pm. Among other things, the Order requires businesses to restrict the number of cus- tomers and to follow certain social distancing guidelines. To limit the number of cus- tomers in a retail establish- ment, the Order requires an Emergency Maximum Oc- cupancy (EMO) be deter- mined and posted. Beth and Dave Allen opened Mountain Holiday for business in anticipa- tion of Mother's Day just as the Order went into ef- fect. When asked about the reopening, Dave Allen said, "It went great. We opened on Friday at 5 pm for 2 hours and we had people coming in throughout the time. Not heavy but consistent. We posted the state guidelines and put down 6-foot marks on the floor as guidance and as a reminder for staying safe. On Saturday we were open from 10 am to 3 pm. It was another good day with customers coming in and shopping for Mother's Day. We are so thankful for cus- tomers coming out and sup- porting Mountain Holiday," Allen added. Governor Roy Cooper's three-phased approach to lift restrictions are outlined below. It is important to note, if infections spike or benchmark trends begin to move in the wrong direc- tion, the state may move to a previous phase to protect public health. The best sci- ence and data available will be used to make all deci- sions and continue consul- tation with business and industry leaders. Phase 2 To be implemented at least two to three weeks after Phase 1: Lift Stay at Home order with strong encouragement for vulnerable populations to continue staying at home to stay safe. Allow limited opening of restaurants, bars, fitness centers, personal care ser- vices and other businesses that can follow safety proto- cols, including the potential need to reduce capacity. Allow gathering at places such as houses of worship and entertainment venues at reduced capacity. Increase the number of people allowed at gather- ings. Open public play- grounds. Continue rigorous re- strictions on nursing homes and other congregate care settings. Phase 3 To be implemented at least four to six weeks after Phase 2: Lessen restrictions for vulnerable populations with encouragement to con- tinue practicing physical distancing and minimizing exposure to settings where distancing isn't possible. Allow increased capac- ity at restaurants, bars, other businesses, houses of wor- ships and entertainment venues. Further increase the number of people allowed at gatherings. Continue rigorous re- strictions on nursing homes and other congregate care settings. With a 6% increase in Coronavirus cases in Cleve- land County last week, it is a reminder of the need to stay vigilant in wearing a face covering and washing your hands. Life will even- tually return to normal, but the speed at which that oc- curs depends greatly upon citizens doing their part to follow the guidelines set out by the state.
