We strongly support hospitality, specifically lodging, to be reopened for tourism. We were recently under contract to purchase an Inn when the pandemic started. The transaction is on hold it opens. We have been following county & local lodging meetings. Your capable health officers and staff have been very helpful. The unique features of many Mendocino properties would allow limited contact with locals - private cabins, private beaches, farms, etc.- please consider a partial conditioned opening.
