Orange County small, local attractions presented reopening plans to the Orange County Economic Recovery Task Force Thursday afternoon May 21. After reviewing the guidelines and coordinating an on-site inspection by the Orange County Division of Building Safety, it was determined twelve attractions demonstrated the ability to implement their plans safely, as presented.
Mayor Demings has submitted a letter of endorsement for each of the small attractions to Governor DeSantis' office.
"I have had time to evaluate the small attractions plans and they were thorough and comprehensive. I will make a recommendation to the Governor to reopen these businesses," Mayor Demings said. "If we open effectively, we will be able to expedite the window of recovery here in Orange County. This is another opportunity for our community to pull together during tough times, much like we did after the Pulse Nightclub tragedy."
Mayor Demings is reviewing Universal Orlando's proposed reopening plans and will make a determination Friday morning on whether or not to move forward with a letter of recommendation.
