“#California city to remove public seating as COVID-19 spikes<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

A city near\u00a0Los Angeles\u00a0is closing outdoor seating spaces on public property starting Sunday evening amid a spike in\u00a0COVID-19 cases\u00a0across the county.<\/p>\n

The city, Manhattan Beach, is located along the Southern California coast, about 20 miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Starting at 10 p.m. on Sunday, tables and chairs in outdoor seating spaces will be removed until further notice, the city said<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The announcement comes after the city on Saturday announced that COVID-19 cases \u2013 currently at 821 \u2013 have nearly doubled\u00a0since Nov. 1.<\/p>\n

On Dec. 31, the daily number of new cases was 21. On New Year\u2019s Day, that number had climbed to 26. Meanwhile, ICU capacity in Southern California is 0%.<\/p>\n

Manhattan Beach Mayor Suzanne Hadley urged residents to \u201cstay home if possible, and mainly go out for work and essentials, or to exercise outdoors.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis recent spike in the virus is significant despite the good news<\/a>\u00a0last month of our Manhattan Beach firefighters receiving some of the first\u00a0COVID-19 vaccinations,\u201d Hadley said. \u201cAlthough public seating areas will be\u00a0closed temporarily, please continue supporting our local businesses that offer\u00a0pick-up, curbside, take-out and delivery services.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
