As the health data improves on Cape Cod and in the state, we prepare for reopening new sectors in our economy.

Today, Gov. Baker previewed an executive order to be filed on Monday relative bringing back employees needed to prepare for reopening in Phase 2. Further, on June 6th  the Governor will announce when Phase 2 begins (the state has reiterated there are at least 3 weeks between phases.) It will also release in more detail which sectors can reopen in Phase 2. 

As currently published , Phase 2 categories that may reopen include libraries and retail (browsing inside with restrictions), restaurants and accommodations of all types (with restrictions), and personal services.
