Mayor orders Tulsa restaurants, bars to close tonight; drive-through, take-out establishments may operate
Mayor G.T. Bynum issued an executive order Tuesday morning that closes bars and restaurants. The establishments would close at 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, he said, but drive-through and take-out establishments would be able to continue to offer those services. The order will be in place indefinitely, Bynum said at a news conference.
"I hate the impact that this will have on our city. ... But there are no good options in this situation. There are only decisions about which options do the least harm," Bynum said.
Bynum said the order also affects gyms, movie theaters, entertainment venues, food courts and coffee shops. He said violations would be treated the same as any local ordinance violation, including possible forfeiture of an operating license.
COVID-19s numbers arent big in Tulsa County three people with confirmed infections as of late Monday but the impact of the potentially lethal disease is becoming more outsized by the day.
