\nbetween the hours of 10 p.m. and 4 a.m. Take-out, curbside and delivery will still be
\nallowed during those hours, and Burgum encouraged North Dakotans to take advantage
\nand support local businesses.
\n\uf0b7 For those that were already following the ND Smart Restart recommendations of 25
\npercent capacity in high-risk counties, the change will allow them to safely welcome
\nmore customers into their establishments with masking and distancing requirements.
\n\uf0b7 All banquet, ballroom and event venues are limited to 25 percent of their maximum
\noccupancy, not to exceed new capacity limits that have been established with input from
\nvenues and local public health officials based on the size of the venue. Physical
