Very disappointed in our local OC council and county commissioners. Now that restaurants can open for outside dining - these governing bodies have required additional permits and the local health department must also approve the request. After nearly 90 days of shut down, why did these leaders wait until the last minute announcement of opening for outside dining to issue these decrees? Yes, they are now going to expedite the processing and/or allow for opening if the application for a permit is filed, but this does NOTHING to help our restaurants who have suffered throughout this pandemic. Simply no need for these permits. These restaurants already have licenses to operate, why make another hurdle for these owners to jump through at the last minute? I just continue to shake my head in wonderment of the decision-making process, or lack thereof, by our local government leaders. Real leadership would have simply allowed these restaurants to open for outside dining without any additional permitting. Our local restaurant owners can handle the pandemic-imposed restrictions - of that I'm confident. So, instead of requiring these permits, please trust our local businesses to open properly and conduct business as they know how.
