Restaurants and bars were allowed to extend their operating hours per an amended executive order signed by Gov. Doug Burgum on Monday.
North Dakota restaurants and bars that have been operating under reduced hours due to COVID-19 restrictions have had some normalcy return. Governor Doug Burgum has signed an amended executive order changing hours of operation.
A previous executive order, issued Nov. 16, closed in-person service at bars and restaurants at 10 p.m. daily and did not allow opening until 4 a.m. The amended executive order, which was signed Monday, allows a return to normal business hours as long those hours comply with any local requirements.
