Yuba and Sutter counties begin to reopen
Yuba and Sutter counties’ joint chief health officer issued new coronavirus directives on Friday that will allow some businesses to reopen in the rural areas north of Sacramento.
The orders, which will take effect Monday, mean that a number of businesses, including restaurants, can reopen, although county residents must still wear face coverings in public to reduce the possibility of transmission.
The businesses — which include restaurants, retail outlets, shopping malls, construction, real estate, agriculture, gyms, hair and nail salons, barbershops, spas, massage therapy centers and tattoo parlors — have been determined to present a low to medium risk of contact, according to health officials.
County officials were quick to point out that residents and businesses are still subject to California’s statewide stay-at-home order, but offered no substantive advice on how to navigate reopening under such circumstances.
“The intent of the order is to comply with both the Governor’s order and President Trump’s ‘Opening up America Again’ guidelines,” health chief Dr. Phuong Luu said in a statement. “The purpose is to continue to mitigate the spread of the virus to the greatest extent possible while addressing the need to gradually reopen the economy in order to ensure vital services are resumed in a safe manner.”
As of Thursday afternoon, there were 48 confirmed COVID-19 cases reported for Yuba and Sutter counties, plus three deaths.

When the new restaurant in Sutter called The French Whisk opens, mention you heard it about it on FR and I will personally pay for a glass of wine or beer for you.
It would be worth a trip to Sutter if we're ever allowed out of Arizona.
Sutter County is a loooooooong way from Arizona. But if you’re ever up this way give me a ping. No expiration date on this offer.
What is the preferred method for eating while masking?
Take heart. President Dr. Trump is headed your way next week. You’ll soon be free!
Heh, heh. I may have to wear one while serving you you beer on wine but I’m fairly sure you won’t have to wear one.
I’ll take you up on it!
We used to come through northern California all the time when we lived in Seattle would come down to Tahoe and Turlock to visit family. Beautiful area; too bad it’s in California.
It’s not in California. It’s in The State of Jefferson.
I remember seeing those signs when I was a youngling. I would love for it to be official.
I have extended family in Turlock. The Cheese Factory is a must visit. See you soon.
It’s a state of mind. So, as far as we are concerned, it is official.
I’m originally from that neck of the woods (Gridley). We’re visiting family there in July so I may take you up on that offer.
That’s half the battle.
Looking forward to it. One of my jobs is at a duck club just a couple of miles from Gridley. If you have time, I’ll take you for a spin around the property.
You must mean Gray Lodge. One of my favorite places! Lucky you!
The Colonists embraced the name. As do we Jeffersonians.
Gray Lodge is along the way. I work at The Greenhead.
Don’t know that one but the whole area is a waterfowl paradise in winter. Enjoy, and with luck, I’ll see ya soon.
No luck needed. God has ordained it.
