City of New Orleans Health Department Guidelines for COVID-19 Reopening Phase 3 (3.3)

11/9/2020

 
Click here to Download Guidelines
 I.       PURPOSE

Mayor LaToya Cantrell issued a “Mayoral Proclamation to Further Promulgate Emergency Orders
During the State of Emergency Due to COVID-19” (“Mayoral Proclamation”) on May 15, 2020, which allows the City of New Orleans to enter into a phased reopening of businesses following a two month Stay at Home Mandate. These phases will continue to prohibit certain activities in the interest of public health and to prevent the further spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.  The New Orleans Health Department provides this document to aid in the interpretation and implementation of the May 15, 2020 Mayoral Proclamation and to provide additional guidance and mandates for residents and businesses in the City of New Orleans.

II.      FACTUAL BACKGROUND

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Coronavirus 2019 Disease (“COVID-19”) is a communicable respiratory disease that can be easily transmitted especially in group settings.  It is believed to be spread easily amongst the population by various means of exposure, including person to person transmission and attaching to surfaces for prolonged periods of time. Due to the contagious nature of the virus and emerging scientific evidence regarding transmission, non-pharmacological interventions are indicated to slow the spread of the virus, such as physical and social distancing, increased sanitation protocols, and use of personal protective equipment as much as possible while in public. Slowing transmission through these measures safeguards public health and safety, protects the most vulnerable populations that have been disproportionately affected by COVID-19, and protects the ability of health care providers to avoid surge conditions in response to an influx of patients. As a novel virus, there is a limited scientific understanding of this virus, and measures specific to reducing harm from COVID-19 must be guided by sound evidence-based research as it emerges. One known proven way to slow transmission is to limit interactions among people to the greatest extent practicable through non-pharmacological interventions such as those described above.

Due to the direct and definitive threat to public health and safety from COVID-19, Mayor LaToya Cantrell has taken emergency actions to mitigate the effects and prevent further deaths and illness for the people of the City of New Orleans from COVID-19. On March 11, 2020, Mayor Cantrell filed a “Mayoral Proclamation of a State of Emergency Due to COVID-19,” which allowed Mayor Cantrell to exercise the emergency authorities provided to the Mayor in La. R.S. 29:727, and in coordination with state and federal agencies, to thoroughly prepare for and respond to the COVID-19 emergency.  Following the dramatic increase in the number of positive cases in New Orleans, from one (1) case on March 9, 2020 to seventy-five (75) cases and two deaths in Orleans Parish as of March 15, 2020, Mayor Cantrell filed the March 16, 2020 Mayoral Proclamation to impose restrictions on public and private gatherings, to close businesses where large gatherings routinely occur, and to limit restaurant operations to take out and delivery.  On April 16, 2020, there were 5,847 positive cases and 302 deaths due to COVID-19; therefore, Mayor Cantrell extended the
Mayoral Proclamation due to the continued high number of new cases and deaths.

On  May  15,  2020,  Mayor  Cantrell  issued  a  Mayoral  Proclamation  to  Further  Promulgate
Emergency Orders During the State of Emergency Due to COVID-19, which extends the April
15th restrictions until Health Department guidance provides otherwise. The Proclamation directs the Department of Health to promulgate temporary regulations to introduce a phased approach to easing the restrictions in place, with flexibility provided to the public health professionals to immediately respond in real time and adjust restrictions if necessary with adjustments based on public health data, guidance of the CDC and State health department, or applicable law.

III.    PUBLIC HEALTH MILESTONES

As of May 15, 2020, the City of New Orleans had met the public health milestones for entering a phased reopening process as described by evidence-based guidance for jurisdictions and health departments issued by the World Health Organization, White House, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Johns Hopkins University. This guidance identifies when it may be safe to enter a phased easing of restrictions, which allows the reopening of some businesses during the COVID-19 emergency. It requires jurisdictions to meet the following four public health milestones in order to enter a phased reopening process. The four public health milestones and thresholds are currently defined as follows.

Sustained decrease in number of new cases
Jurisdictions must see a downward trajectory of documented cases within a 14 to 21-day period. The New Orleans Health Department will continue to monitor new positive cases to determine the need to reissue restrictions if cases increase above 50 per day (averaged over at least 3 days) or consecutive increase in cases for more than 5 days. The positivity rate showing the percent of new cases over the total number of tests reported and the R0 which shows the transmission rate will also be factors to consider.  The positivity rate should fall below 5% and R0 should remain at or below 1.0. As of November 9, 2020, there have been fewer than 50 cases per day and a positivity rate of less than 3% for more than 6 weeks. In order for the City of New Orleans to continue moving into the next phase of reopening, there must be sustained low case counts and positivity rates.

Consistently testing at 4-5% of population
Jurisdictions must be able to test 4-5% of their population over the course of a month to ensure that all symptomatic individuals have access to testing, and that the number of new cases is representative of the disease spread within the community and not a result of diminished testing capacity. The City of New Orleans continues to have high rates of testing through healthcare providers and community-based testing locations.   The number of tests completed will be monitored by the New Orleans Health Department to ensure that testing remains at this capacity of at least 15,000 per month. Across New Orleans, there have been over 1,000 tests per day since July 2020.

Adequate staffing for contact tracing
In order to isolate and identify exposure of close contacts, the Louisiana Department of Health will need to increase their ability to implement contact tracing.  As of June 8, 2020, there were over
600 individuals able to provide contact tracing in Louisiana and this number is expected to grow to 700 individuals. The number of contact tracers is based on the ability to contact all new positive cases within 24 hours of LDH receiving the test results. The New Orleans Health Department will work with LDH to determine the levels of contact tracing necessary and provide assistance if necessary.

Adequate healthcare system capacity
Healthcare systems, especially hospitals, must be able to care for all COVID-19 and non-COVID-
19 patients without using surge capacity.  The New Orleans Health Department utilizes data from regional hospitals and LDH to monitor hospitalization rates and availability of hospital beds, intensive care unit (ICU) beds, ventilators, and personal protective equipment supplies.

As of November 9, 2020, the City of New Orleans continues to meet all public health milestones for continuing to move into the third stage of Phase Three (3.3). Phase Three in New Orleans will prioritize increasing capacity for activities that are proven to have relatively low risk of outbreak or community spread, activities that are outdoors, and timed, seated events. Special consideration has also been given to bringing back the most jobs for residents (with the least impact on public health) and to ensuring that policies do not worsen health or economic inequities. Phase Three will progress in multiple stages, with time between each stage to evaluate the impacts of easing restrictions. Phase Three will follow all State of Louisiana guidelines and will include some additional local restrictions. These guidelines outline the third stage of Phase Three.

IV.    REOPENING PHASE THREE (3.3):

Phase Three (3.3) Exempted Restaurants

Pursuant to the May 15th Mayoral Proclamation to Further Promulgate Emergency Orders During the State of Emergency Due to COVID-19, the Department of Safety and Permits, in conjunction with the New Orleans Health Department, provides the following additional temporary options for outdoor seating to Restaurants, Bars, Breweries, Microbreweries, Distilleries and Microdistilleries.

•   All Restaurants, Bars, Breweries, Microbreweries, Distilleries and Microdistilleries as defined in the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, shall make every effort to continue to limit their operations to take out and delivery, including the sale of alcohol in accordance
and State issued permits. Restaurants may provide indoor and outdoor seating to customers only if they operate in accordance with the guidelines from the State Fire Marshal.

•   All Restaurants, Bars, Breweries, Microbreweries, Distilleries and Microdistilleries that have a current sidewalk café permit may begin to utilize the spaces covered by the permit, but only if they operate in accordance with the guidelines from the State Fire Marshal and the safety measures herein. Tables shall be arranged in a way to ensure ADA compliance and shall be located no closer than 8’ from the center of the required walking path. Loitering outside of any of these establishments shall be prohibited.

•   Restaurants, Bars, Breweries, Microbreweries, Distilleries and Microdistilleries that would like to apply for a sidewalk café permit, or whose sidewalk café permit requires renewal, may apply for a temporary sidewalk use permit without fees. The added value brought to citizens and public health by expanding the availability of outdoor restaurant seating outweighs the fees associated with these applications during the COVID-19 emergency. These temporary sidewalk café permits will be evaluated under the current sidewalk café regulations, as well as for compliance with the guidelines from the State Fire Marshal. All such temporary sidewalk café permits will expire on December 31, 2020, unless the City determines that an extension of this date is warranted.

•   Enforcement of the off-street parking provisions contained in the CZO applicable to Restaurants, Bars, Breweries, Microbreweries, Distilleries and Microdistilleries is hereby temporarily suspended.   Restaurants, Bars, Breweries, Microbreweries, Distilleries and Microdistilleries with off-street parking may use those spaces for outdoor seating, provided they operate in accordance with the guidelines from the State Fire Marshal, the safety measures herein, and all other applicable law.  Tables shall be arranged in a way to ensure ADA compliance and shall be located no closer than 8’ from the center of any required walking path. Loitering in or near the outdoor seating areas of any of these establishments shall be prohibited.  In no way shall this temporary privilege be construed as a permanent right.

•   Service and sales of alcoholic beverages shall only occur between the hours of 8 a.m. and
11 p.m. In restaurants, all alcohol sales must be accompanied by food sales. Sidewalk cafes and seating in parking lots shall be considered part of the premises for purposes of this section.

Live Entertainment Guidance

•   Any party seeking to host a live entertainment performance in the City during Phase Three (3.3) shall be required to obtain either a special event permit or a certificate of registration from the City in order to do so. A special event permit may allow live entertainment when it is otherwise not permitted. A certificate of registration is for businesses that are allowed to offer live entertainment when this Emergency Proclamation is not in effect, such as venues which have valid live entertainment mayoralty permits. Certificates of registration allow the City to review health and safety plans from businesses before they are permitted to operate in order to ensure safe operation for patrons and employees. These certificates may be applied for online or through email at  specialevents@nola.gov.  Pursuant to her Emergency Proclamation, the Mayor has waived prohibitions in the CZO and in the municipal code limiting the number of special event permits a venue may be eligible for as well as prohibitions regarding the frequency of permitted special events.

days in advance of the event seeking permitting or registration may be summarily denied.

Special Event Guidance

•   Any party seeking to host a special event in the City during Phase Three (3.3) shall be required to obtain a special event permit from the City in order to do so.  Pursuant to her Emergency Proclamation, the Mayor has waived prohibitions in the CZO and in the municipal code limiting the number of special event permits a venue may be eligible for as well as prohibitions regarding the frequency of permitted special events.
•   For the purposes of Phase Three (3.3) reopening guidelines, “special events” are defined as any event that is not allowed by right by an establishment’s zoning designation under the CZO (or by an approved conditional use) and by the Phase Three (3.3) guidelines.

Based on public health data and emerging evidence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and COVID-19 disease, the Director of Health may amend, update, revise, or clarify any portion of this document including public health milestones, definitions of phases, eligible businesses, or any other provision, in order to institute updated measures for the control of the epidemic and to protect the health and safety of the public. Exemptions may be revoked based on failure to comply with requirements set forth in this document, or due to other public health data that indicates such a setting or activity is not aligned with minimizing exposure to the virus.

V.      ENFORCEMENT OF THESE GUIDELINES

The Louisiana Homeland Security and Emergency Assistance and Disaster Act provides that “any person . . . violating any order, rule, or regulation promulgated pursuant to this Chapter, shall be fined not more than five hundred dollars, or confined in the parish jail for not more than six months, or both.” La. R.S. 29:727(G). Additionally, Section 54-401 of the City Code provides that whoever “violates any provision of an emergency order issued by a competent official under authority of a declaration of emergency made pursuant to state law, or whoever during such a declared state of emergency sells anything at a price that violates R.S. 29:732, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.” Section 54-25 of the City Code says that such a misdemeanor "shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $500.00, or by imprisonment for not more than five months or both such fine and penalty." Mayor Cantrell has declared a state of emergency to exist in New Orleans via proclamation on March 11, 2020 and has imposed orders subject to these penalty provisions in her May 15, 2020 Proclamation. These emergency orders will be strictly enforced, and compliance is of the utmost importance.

Enforcement measures may include, but are not limited to, prohibiting a business from offering take-out services, revocation of a business’s ability to open under Phase Three (3.3) guidelines, revocation of any special event or live entertainment permits, revocation of certificates of registration, misdemeanor charges for owners, managers, and/or staff, and cessation of electrical service to the business.  Businesses holding Alcoholic Beverage Outlet permits from the City are also advised that the right to maintain such permits is contingent on the business following all applicable laws, including those contained in any Mayoral Proclamation and in these guidelines or any subsequently issued by the City.
