R.J.'s Closed

A sign on the door of RJ’s Eatery in Fulton announces the restaurant’s temporary closure due to the spread of COVID-19 with a lighthearted touch. On Monday, Fulton officials passed a “shelter in place” order, which temporarily forces some businesses to close while also restricting others to curbside or delivery service. The move is meant to restrict large gatherings of people to help slow the spread of the virus.

Fulton officials have issued a “shelter in place” order and set strict guidelines on what they consider essential businesses amid growing concerns over the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

On Monday, the Fulton Board of Aldermen unanimously approved an order limiting business practices and activities within the city. The order requires that all “nonessential businesses,” primarily retail shops and restaurants, provide either curbside or drive-through service or delivery or close their doors to the general public entirely.
