- The Governor extended the expiration date of Kansas’ COVID-19 emergency declaration to March 31. On January 13, the state eased some restrictions, allowing restaurants and bars to serve customers until midnight and remain open until 12:30 a.m. Bars and restaurants will still be limited to 50% of their normal operating capacity, and patrons will still be required to wear masks unless actively eating or drinking.
- As of November 18, all citizens are required to wear a facial covering in all public spaces where social distancing is not possible. A statewide plan to restart the economy in phases offers guidance about capacity limits, but counties aren’t required to follow. A mask mandate remains in effect.
- As of October 5, 2020, Kansas solidified a phased plan to reopen the state giving individual counties the power to determine reopening speed. Restaurants are permitted to open beginning in phase 1 while adhering to social distancing guidelines, and bars are permitted to open starting in phase 3.
- All counties’ businesses are encouraged to follow the state’s industry-specific guidelines regarding sanitation, and customers must be at least six feet apart at all times.
