Atlanta Mayor Rolls Back City's Reopening Plans Back to Phase 1 as Coronavirus Cases Surge [View all]
Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms is ordering residents to stay at home as she rolls back the city's reopening plans to Phase 1 amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Bottoms issued the order on Friday "in response to the alarming increase in COVID-19 cases in the state of Georgia," according to a press release from her office.
“Based upon the surge of COVID-19 cases and other data trends, pursuant to the recommendations of our Reopening Advisory Committee, Atlanta will return to Phase I of our reopening plan,” said Bottoms said in a statement. “Georgia reopened in a reckless manner and the people of our city and state are suffering the consequences.”
Under Phase 1, residents are asked to stay at home with the exception of essential trips. Restaurants are also asked to limit business to only delivery and to-go orders.
