Montgomery County Releases Additional Guidance for Business Reopening and Recovery

For Immediate Release: Friday, June 5, 2020

As Montgomery County continues reopening as part of Phase 1 of the COVID-19 pandemic recovery, County officials released additional guidance to help business owners as they bring their organizations back online. This guidance, in the form of a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document, can be found on the Montgomery County website.

These FAQs guide business owners to the proper documentation in areas such as outdoor dining, requirements for reopening, and information about looking ahead to Phases 2 and 3 of recovery, among other topics.

“We know that business owners are finding themselves in unprecedented territory,” said Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich. “Our goal with this document is to make the reopening process as straightforward as possible, and to make sure that when people have questions about what is expected and allowed, that they know where to go to find answers.”

As the reopening and recovery process continues, the FAQs will be continually updated to reflect the queries most often received by the County.
