Indoor Dining now at 75%

Restaurants in Maryland are now allowed to seat up to 75% of their patrons. The order to increase capacity, came from Governor Hogan on the heels of fall temperatures. 

Restaurants must continue to follow social distancing and public health requirements consistent with CDC, FDA and National Restaurant Association guidelines.

Buffets are still not allowed, and neither is serving patrons who are not seated.

Also, state guidlines can be tailored for each jurisdiction.  

Anne Arundel County, Baltimore City, Montgomery County and Prince George's County remain under tighter restrictions than the rest of Maryland.

Elizabeth Day, Wife of Salisbury Mayor Jake Day serves jail time

Elizabeth Day, the wife of Salisbury Mayor Jake Day, is currently serving 10 days in jail. 

Day surrendered to authorities late Friday afternoon. She was in court Friday morning facing a single count of attempted possession of Adderall, a controlled and dangerous substance, and also one count of contributing to the condition of a child, the second charge was dismissed by the state.

The 30, year old former physical education teacher at James M. Bennett High School in Salisbury, was arrested on December 19 stemming from  an investigation that was launched after a report was filed Dec. 9, 2019, through the Child Advocacy Center.

Day, who apologized for her "poor decision", and said, "I take full responsibility for my actions", entered an Alford plea, which means, that a defendant maintains his or her innocence but acknowledges that, had the state proceeded to trial, there likely would have been sufficient evidence for a conviction.
