DC Moves Closer
to Phased Reopening
|
|
|
|
Today,
DC marked the 13th day of decline in community spread of COVID-19
in DC, meaning tomorrow we could hit the milestone of 14 days laid
out by public health officials.
Mayor
Bowser and DC Health Director Dr. LaQuandra Nesbitt will be
providing an update on phase one of reopening at her daily briefing
tomorrow at 11:00 AM (those briefings can be viewed on DC cable
channel 16, the Mayor's Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube feeds, or on the web). Barring any spikes,
DC could begin a phased reopening this Friday, May 29.

DC is
moving the location of its testing site currently located at United
Medical Center. As of June 1, that testing site will be relocated

adding a new walk-up testing site at 5th St NW between F & G

Are
you a Ward 5 small business in need of supplies to reopen? The DC
Department of Small and Local Business Development is distributing
supplies like hand sanitizer, masks, and cleaning supplies to small
businesses through business improvement districts and main street
organizations.

Pilot Program for
Retailers in Certain Sectors Expands
|
|
|
The
program grants waivers to local bookstores, music and card shops,
florists, sundries, and beauty supply stores retail shops to do
curbside and front door pickup. All
sales are advance purchases (pre-ordered online or by phone) only.
The stores will need to agree to share data and information with DC
about their operations. The goal with this pilot is to learn
important lessons about reopening while ensuring safe operations. Learn more and apply today.
