Suburban Milwaukee County 'Safer at Home' orders prohibit opening of bars, restaurants
MILWAUKEE -- The 18 municipalities in suburban Milwaukee County and their 10 public health officials came together to sign an order that provides guidelines on how local businesses can move forward after the Wisconsin Supreme Court struck down the state's coronavirus stay-at-home order Wednesday, May 13, ruling that Governor Tony Evers' administration overstepped its authority when the order was extended for another month without consulting legislators.The suburban Milwaukee County order runs through May 21.The SCOWIS 4-3 ruling Wednesday essentially reopened the state -- lifting caps on the size of gatherings, allowing people to travel as they please and allowing shuttered businesses to reopen, including bars and restaurants, however, local governments can still impose their own health restrictions.Some Milwaukee area business owners said Thursday they were scrambling to make sense of it all.
