Sedgwick County commissioners have approved a resolution that will allow the county to enforce a new health order that went into effect Wednesday. The health order puts a limit on mass gatherings of 100 people or 50 percent of the fire code capacity, whichever is less. This will apply to restaurants, bars, nightclubs, fitness and health centers that have patrons not wearing masks for a longer period of time. Bars and nightclubs will have to close at 11 p.m. but they can continue carryout and curbside services past midnight. Retail stores are not considered mass gatherings but they would be limited to 50 percent of fire code capacity, with concerns about social distancing and the approaching holiday shopping season. There are exemptions for religious events, weddings, funerals, schools and school activities, licensed child care facilities and courts.
