Watkins Glen and Odessa are the only locales stating that they are reopening today anyway.

Good for county leadership, bucking Cuomo and his "regions".
Watkins Glen, N.Y. (WETM) – According to a post from Watkins Glen mayor Luke Leszyk’s Facebook page, the Village of Watkins Glen will also be taking a stance against New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo’s executive order.
Lesyzyk says in his post, “Despite the indecision of our governor and their lack of guidance I would say that we are officially in phase 2 of reopening”.
Lesyzyk also saying quote, “I would like to include outdoor seating for our restaurants though that wasn’t included but I feel makes sense. If any businesses get push back or complaints I will take full responsibility. Watkins Glen is on its way to being back open”.
