Oregon state COVID-19 updates
Oregon has a new framework for assessing COVID-19 risk in each county. Guidelines and restrictions for preventing COVID-19 will be determined by the county’s risk level for spreading COVID-19. Risk levels will be reassessed weekly and guidelines will change after two weeks if necessary.
Washington County—as well as other counties in the Portland Metro Region—are currently in the “Extreme Risk” category.
Extreme Risk Guidance
After a two-week “freeze” from November 18-December 3 that required restaurants to limit their offerings to takeout and retail to 75 percent capacity, the following new guidelines are taking effect as of December 3:
- Eating and drinking establishments can open for outdoor dining; takeout is still highly recommended
- Indoor establishments and recreation (including gyms, theaters, museums, entertainment centers, etc.) are prohibited.
- Outdoor establishments and recreation (including hiking trails, campsites, gardens) are limited to a maximum of 50 people.
- Retail stores, including groceries and malls are limited to a maximum capacity of 50% (curbside pick-up is encouraged).

We look forward to welcoming visitors when the time is right.
