CADILLAC â Faced with the prospect of having to weather at least two additional weeks of a statewide dine-in ban, desperation is growing among beleaguered restaurant workers.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced on Wednesday the epidemic order continues to temporarily pause indoor dining in bars and restaurants, but they can continue to offer outdoor dining, carry-out and delivery.
According to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, the working plan is to open indoor dining with mitigation measures, capacity limits and a curfew on Feb. 1, but the ultimate decision depends on data continuing to stabilize. Additional details on the reopening pathway are expected next week.
