Today you cant go to the park if you live in Sonoma County the shutdown of all parks is in response to some people not following the shelter in place rules and the social distancing guidelines for Sarah Stinson live in Sonoma County now to explain good morning sara. Good morning and thats right im live here at walnut park in petaluma just an example of one park that you can no longer go to in Sonoma County and Public Health officials here in this county put this in place today after seeing over the weekend we had beautiful weather people were disregarding their shelter in place order of course this is a statewide order but also you know started really here in the bay area, the first orders and people really just throwing it out the windows and going straight to the park take a look at this video you can see people on the beach enjoying their time. Yeah, sure the weather was grateful when everybody has the same idea then you are forced to be in close quarters with others and that means you are not social distancing. We saw people at beaches across the bay area was crowded with people. Some people who live around there some people who dont people leaving their own county to go visit the beach in the park and thats why even governor Gavin Newsome said he was disappointed with how many people were out and about parking areas were packed, you couldnt even find parking to go on a trail or go to the beach in goa picnic sites and so thats governor Gavin Newsome actually shut down all state parking lots and counties are falling so following suit with their own parks. Its going on across the bay area, lets hear from some park goers were disappointed to hear that they can no longer go to their favorite spots.

You know that type of stuff in it. The kind of the biggest area we have around to do it not to blow. His with a parking lots are shut down you know it makes a lot harder. So those are people in the east bay and im here in the north bay, its all really all across the bay area but the best thing you can do is just take a walk near your house that way you can just walk your dog or walk yourself go for a run and then you can go straight back home when youre traveling outside of your city outside of your county really defeating the purpose of this stay at home order which is in effect statewide until march, 18 sonoma counties really follow suit with as well and across the bay area as well for now, im live in petaluma sara stinson kron 4 news.
