Several local restaurants are defying Gov. Tom Wolfâs orders to close indoor dining at their facilities.
Late last week, Wolf ordered all restaurants to close their indoor seating areas effective on Saturday, Dec. 12 until Jan. 4. Restaurants are only permitted to serve take-out due to the COVID-19 pandemic and surging cases of coronavirus statewide.
Locally, several restaurants have refused to follow Wolfâs mandate.
Rob Inguagiato of Spankyâs Courthouse Cafe on N. Third Street said the restaurant couldnât afford to close its dining room again. The local eatery is popular with locals for breakfast and lunch â especially those with business to conduct at the county courthouse.

The Reformation of the Belize Police Training Academy
The Belize Police Department was the recipient of equipment to enhance the training of officers which was handed over by U.S. Chargé d’affaires, Keith Gilges. The U.S. Government is also providing a curriculum advisor who will work closely with the police academy to develop curriculum. This initiative is part of a CARSI-supported in-service training project, in which the U.S. Embassy agreed to provide a Curriculum Development Advisor for three years and to procure and install two stationary podiums and one portable system.
