OAKRIDGE COMMUNITY UPDATE

March 16, 2020

TO THE OAKRIDGE COMMUNITY

As many of you may know the State of Oregon has issued new and stricter guidelines effecting
restaurants and bars, and community gatherings to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

As of March 17, 2020, all food and drink establishments may only sell take-out or delivery subject to a
misdemeanor violation. Gatherings of over 25 are prohibited, with a handful of exceptions.

The City of Oakridge will comply with these new guidelines. These new guidelines bring with them a
host of questions. As the Governor’s office provides answers, we will provide those to the community.
We expect to have more information available to share with you tomorrow.
