the doj didnt immediately provide copies of those

    yet enforcement remains limited

On May 4 cheap jerseys , members of Anytime Fitness, a West Lebanon gym, received an unexpected email.

"We are so excited to share with you that our doors are now OPEN," it read.

The gym, part of a nationwide chain that offers members 24 hour a day access, said it would limit the number of entrants to 30 people, and ensure that machines were wiped down frequently.

"The safety and health of our members and staff are of utmost importance as we adhere to COVID 19 policies," the gym told its members.

One policy that Anytime Fitness is violating, however, is that it isn't allowed to open at all.

While Gov. Chris Sununu's emergency orders allow retail shops, campgrounds and state parks to open in the state, gyms and other health facilities Cheap nfl jerseys , along with a range of other entities where crowds may gather, must remain closed in New Hampshire.

Anytime Fitness, however, said it will continue to let in members.

"Being closed for a certain amount of time, yes, that's an inconvenience," Sean Kuit, the owner of the West Lebanon gym, told NHPR. Department of Justice indicate that the number of businesses like Anytime Fitness that are violating the state's 'Stay at Home' order remains small.

But the potential for future conflict could grow as the economic strain of the shutdown weighs down on owners, and the state's phased re opening of the economy https://www.jerseysbuz.com , with different industries being held to different guidelines and timelines, creates the possibility for confusion or frustration. Underlying all of this, of course, is the public health risk that officials say is shaping the state's strategy and which could be thwarted if businesses choose to violate reopening guidelines.

Anytime Fitness isn't alone in violating the wide range of COVID 19 guidelines issued by the state in recent weeks. A driving range in Newfields , the governor's hometown, drew in a steady stream of golfers over the weekend, despite the fact that driving ranges have not been given permission to reopen. (Golf courses, however, did reopen for play on Monday.)

A memorandum issued by Attorney General Gordon MacDonald to law enforcement officials laid out possible penalties that individuals could face for violating Sununu's orders, including a misdemeanor charge for disorderly conduct. Businesses could also face fines of up to $20,000, under current state law.

It isn't clear how many businesses may be violating the governor's orders, however. According to the New Hampshire Department of Justice, business and property owners in at least six towns Bedford, Newport, Thornton, Loudon, Jackson and Londonderry were issued written warnings by local officials. The DOJ didn't immediately provide copies of those warnings, but town officials shared records with NHPR.

The violations include a gym in Newport that opened earlier this week and then quickly shut down after receiving a warning from local officials. In both Londonderry and Jackson, local landlords were offering short term rentals to visitors from out of state in violation of the COVID 19 guidelines, until receiving a warning from police.

There are also a range of smaller infractions that may go unreported although not unnoticed, such as retail employees not wearing masks, or employers failing to take the temperature of their workers, as required by the governor's most recent guidelines.

According to state officials, residents shouldn't expect the cavalry to swoop in on these infractions.

"Residents are encouraged to have a conversation with local law enforcement if they are concerned about violations of the governor's orders," a state official said in response to a question from NHPR about how citizens can report concerns.

New Hampshire's enforcement policies and approach to potential violations appear largely in line with neighboring states.

Donovan hasn't brought any civil or criminal actions to date.

"Vermont's approach has been to prioritize education and voluntary compliance with Governor Scott's Executive Order and Addendums," his office said in a statement. Earlier this month, the owner of Sunday River Brewing Company in Bethel opened for in service dining in violation of Gov. Janet Mills' order mandating that restaurants limit their offerings to takeout.

The state issued citations and eventually stripped Sunday River Brewing of both its liquor and health licenses after the eatery reopened twice in violation of statewide guidelines, according to the Press Herald.
