As we enter the second phase of a four-phase approach to the reopening of Connecticut, we are keenly aware of how our downtown and Main Street have been greatly affected by COVID-19. We want to ensure that we support each other by wearing masks, washing our hands, and following social distancing guidelines to help everyone stay safe and allow organizations to get back to business.
Connecticut businesses are reopening in planned phases. But before a business can open your doors, they must self-certify that they are following strict safety guidelines to keep employees and customers safe. Phase Two allows a wide range of additional businesses to reopen and expands the services for some of the sectors that successfully opened in Phase 1.
The sector-specific rules include detailed information and requirements about physical distancing, facility capacity, hygiene, sanitizing, signage, personal protective equipment (PPE), scheduling, training, and more. Beginning Monday, June 8, businesses and nonprofits planning to reopen during Phase 2 on June 17 will need to visit Connecticut’s self-certification website to certify that they are compliant with the reopening rules for their sector. Let's support our businesses by following our health and safety guidelines and let them know that We're With You Winsted!

May 20 marks the start of the first phase of the reopening plan. On this date offices, outside dining, retail, museums and zoos (outdoor) and outdoor recreation will take the first steps towards reopening. They will do so by following strict rules to keep customers and employees safe. And of course it is up to each business owner to decide whether this is the right time. The general safety rules will remain in place: the use of face coverings, social distancing, no gatherings of more than 5 people and the strong advice to people over 65 or with underlying conditions to stay safe at home. Reopen Connecticut helped to develop the guidelines for the reopening phases. Timing of the next phase will be fully dependent on the success of this first one. We can only do this together – by following rules, guidelines and using our common sense. Connecticut is counting on you!

How exciting to have two new creative and inventive businesses open on Main Street in the last two months! In October, Mama Pho, serving a Vietnamese cuisine at 242 Main Street, opened a new store just two doors down called Papa Boba, selling Bubble Tea and more! Also, this month the Artist's Tree opened a new shop at 430 Main Street with a mission as a non-profit retail store.
