CITY OF SAN RAFAEL: Emergency Update: Tier Status Update, SMART Train, & More

Emergency

City of San Rafael issued the following announcement on Nov. 5.

Marin has completed its second week in Tier 3 (orange status); the State’s November 4th assessment  for Marin includes:  

  • Testing Positivity: 1.0% (decrease of 0.4% since last assessment) 
  • Adjusted Case Rate: 2.6 (no change) 
  • Health Equity Quartile Test Positivity Rate: 1.5% (decrease of 0.9%) 
In order to achieve Tier 4 (yellow status) Marin must:  

  1. have been in the current tier for a minimum of three weeks 
  2. meet criteria for the next less restrictive tier for all three measures for the prior two consecutive weeks.
To re-cap, the primary changes allowed under the state order for Tier 3 are: 

  • Allowed indoors at full capacity: retail establishments; indoor malls; libraries; office space (although continued telework is encouraged) 
  • Allowed indoors at 50% capacity or 200 people (whichever is fewer): restaurants; museums; places of worship; movie theaters 
  • Allowed indoors at 25% capacity or 100 people (whichever is fewer): gyms and fitness centers (and can utilize indoor pools); family entertainment centers; wineries; card rooms 
  • Allowed outdoors only: bars and breweries 
We must continue to work together to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 or risk being moved back to Tier 3 (red status) —wear your mask, practice physical distancing, and maintain good hygiene. 

SMART/San Rafael Listening Forum – Thursday, November 12th at 5PM
