Chicago is moving into Phase 3 of reopening under Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s plan Wednesday, despite the damage from looting and unrest over the past several days in wake of the death of George Floyd.
Mayor Lightfoot said business owners around Chicago urged her to move ahead with the move into Phase 3.
“I want every business in Chicago to hear me,” Lightfoot said.
Here is what to expect in Chicago Wednesday:
Outdoor dining only will reopen with restrictions along with hair salons and barber shops.
The mayor is calling Phase 3 “cautiously reopening” and she is encouraging people to shop local and support those businesses trying to get back on their feet in the midst of the unrest.
