The City of New Orleans is issuing new guidelines for restaurants and bars around the city.
Officials say all full-service restaurants with seating must cease operations at 9 p.m. daily and must limit seating capacity for social distancing by removing tables or chairs.
Employers must also continue to monitor employees and ask employees to regularly take their own temperature as well as continue to post signs for enhanced cleaning processes.
The city also announced that NOPD will adhere to strict enforcement of bans on loitering throughout the streets of New Orleans, including the French Quarter.
The guidelines come after the CDC advised that event organizers cancel or postpone events with more than 50 people until at least Sunday, May 10th.
