Blacksburg town leaders and police want to implement new COVID-19 restrictions which could limit what businesses, restaurants and residents can do. Proposed Ordinance 1942 was presented to town council on Tuesday night. However, town leaders said they would consider allowing restaurants to stay open later for take-out or delivery. Town leaders hope those restrictions would protect residents and the thousands of college students returning to Virginia Techs campus in just a matter of weeks. Town leaders would also enforce penalties for businesses and people who break the rules, whether they dont wear masks or host or attend parties.
