Two Orange County Cities Allowed to Reopen Beaches

After a tense stand off with the governor - Laguna Beach and San Clemente have been given the green light to re-open their beaches...sort of

From the LA Times:

Laguna Beach and San Clemente last week submitted plans to Sacramento that would allow the public to immediately access the coastline for active recreation such as swimming, surfing and running on the sand. The plans, approved Monday, include a range of measures to avoid overcrowding and to allow safe physical distancing.

“We appreciate the governor’s willingness to work with us to provide a responsible, gradual approach to reopening all beaches in Laguna Beach for active recreation,” Mayor Bob Whalen said in a prepared statement. “This will allow people the opportunity to walk, jog, swim and surf and get some fresh air and exercise on a limited basis, but not congregate or gather in large groups.”

This is just in time for another heat wave to hit this week - so If you do decide to hit the beach - be safe and be smart

Let's keep them open!!!
