MARSHALL, Texas - Based on Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's announcement last week, the city of Marshall reopened businesses Wednesday to full capacity, without requiring masks. Most are cautiously optimistic but several people including the city's spokesperson, restaurant owners, and customers say we're not fully reopened until the COVID-19 pandemic is over.
"Anyone is welcome here," said Miguel Lopez, owner of Miguel's Mexican Food. "People are welcome with the mask or without"
For now, the downtown Marshall eatery still has a sign on the door asking people to wear a mask. But Lopez says the decision is now up to each individual customer, and member of his staff.
