Picture

Marin Public Health Officer Matt Willis said last week that Marin would be able to open for curbside pickup for retailers, including book stores, clothing stores, sporting goods, toy stores, florists, art/ceramics, housewares, jewelers and gift shops on May 18. The move came 10 days after Gov. Newsom announced that retailers could do so statewide. 

Many retailers are ready to go. Here are the big picture details. In order to open for curbside retail pickup, retailers must:

Follow the plan that all businesses need to complete in order to re-open.
Implement industry specific “best practices” to copy/paste into their Site Specific Protection Plan
