Southern Nevada resorts will be able to open 80 percent capacity with three-foot social distancing in Clark County and at 100 percent with no social distance in Nye County. In Northern Nevada, casinos in Carson City will operate 100% with six-ft social distances. Washoe County's plan has yet to receive the necessary endorsements for approval.
Steve Sisolak signed a new directive that moves COVID-19 mitigation measures to local authorities. The new reopening plan would move capacity limits to 80%, a plan that Clark County commissioners voted in favor of. All local plans have to receive approval from the Nevada CO VID- 19 Task Force. Nevada Gaming Control Board will continue to have authority over casinos.
