SHOP LOGAN COUNTY


Tuesday evening, approximately 15 to 20 owners of Lincoln area bars and restaurants gathered at Sorrento's Pizzeria to meet with Lincoln Mayor Tracy Welch, Alderman Kevin Bateman and Logan County Board Chairman Emily Davenport.

The topic was what to do about the current Tier 1 Mitigation Plan set forth by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. Several business owners said that they did not shut down their indoor serving areas on Monday, and the majority say they will not shut down in the future. Most feel they are following the guidelines of the Phase Four recovery plan for corona virus and say they will continue to follow those guidelines, but cannot afford to close their doors.

Welch, Bateman, and Davenport were supportive of the businesses and said the city of Lincoln and the local police department would not be monitoring the situation. However, the Logan County Department of Public Health is required to follow the rules of the Illinois Department of Public Health. At the same time, Welch said that at a meeting with LCDPH administrator Don Cavi, the administrator is sympathetic to the issues Tier 1 Mitigation brings to local small businesses. Welch recommended that the owners reach out, as a unified group, to the health department and try to develop a workable compromise that will help restaurants and bars keep their doors open.

It was noted that there are numerous communities within the state that are not going to adhere to the Tier 1 Mitigation. This includes large cities such as Springfield and Chicago and smaller communities such as Galena.
