STAFF REPORTS

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed an executive order Thursday that eliminates the ban on gatherings and shelter-in-place requirements.

▪ Reduces any remaining distance requirements (i.e. distance between parties at restaurants, bars, and movie theaters, and between patrons of group fitness classes)

▪ Eliminates the ability of law enforcement to close an organization for failure to comply with the Executive Order provisions
