Urgent Updates
What new information is available about the economic impact of
the virus on cities?
The U.S. Conference of Mayors issued a report this month showing that 2020 economic
output in metro areas will fall by $1.45 trillion.
Earlier this year, the National League of Cities estimated that cities could face a revenue loss of $360
billion over three years.
Further Updates
Has TABC issued clarification for wineries and breweries?
Yes. TABC is allowing certain license holders to apply
for a temporary permit to sell alcohol for consumption outdoors and outside
of the originally-permitted area. In other words, TABC is allowing –
with approval – restaurants to serve alcohol on a patio or outdoor area.
Some wineries and breweries read the TABC guidance as allowing
them to automatically sell wine or beer to go for customers to drink in
outdoor areas surrounding the winery or brewery.
TABC issued a clarification prohibiting that practice.
