Government and business leaders in the Town of Marana are concerned about the Pima County Board of Supervisors recent 3-2 vote to implement a mandatory curfew as virus rates rise in Southern Arizona.Â
But Oro Valley officials say theyâre not losing sleep over the countyâs new restrictions as most of their residents are home in bed at that hour.
Under the new curfew guidelines, businesses within county limits are required to close their doors to customers by 10 p.m. or risk having their operational permit suspended or revoked by the Pima County Health Department. The curfew is set to stay in place until virus spread rates drop to 100 cases per 100,000 people in Pima County. Previously, supervisors decided to make the curfew voluntary for businesses, but overcrowded ICUs across the county have led officials to enact more strict measures.
