(Michigan City, IN) - In Michigan City, a curfew and other COVID-19 restrictions

will remain in effect.

The mayor’s seven day executive order has been extended for 30 days

by the city council.

Councilman Bryant Dabney says he’s heard both sides of the issue but

feels it’s best to be safe than sorry.

He said some people have asked why they just use common sense but Dabney

said common sense at times is in short supply among some people.

Other restrictions extended include the closure of Washington Park

and no more than 150 customers inside the city’s largest retail stores.

Michigan City is enforcing restrictions like the curfew.

The public is prohibited from being out from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.

unless there’s good reason.

City Councilman Don Pryzbylinski says he recently spoke to police who reported

making 10 curfew arrests.

The council unanimously extended the mayor’s order.
