Disneyland is hoping to convince Gov. Gavin Newsom that the happiest place on earth is also one of the safest places in California. The theme park has adopted new health and safety recommendations …
“On the rides, you’ll see much more plastic shielding in place, wherever folks might come into contact with each other in fairly close proximity,” said Mike Lyster, a spokeman for the City of Anaheim, to KTLA TV. “There are floor markings everywhere that will keep my party away from another party, basically keeping that 6 feet of distance between them.
There will also be a “significant amount of open space” between parties when they are loaded onto rides, he said. The other protocols include additional hand sanitizing stations, ground markings to ensure proper separation, and adding Spanish language signs with information on the COVID-19 health and safety measures. The park previously said it would require masks and temperature checks on its guests.
Despite the added measures, California officials seem in no hurry to issue guidelines on reopening or set a date when the gates can swing hope.“We feel there’s no hurry in putting out guidelines,” the governor said. “We’re going to be led by a health-first framework and … we’re going to be stubborn about it.”
Meanwhile, the city of Anaheim faces a likely $100 million budget shortfall, a good deal of it generated by usage taxes, and the local and regional economy is struggling with the lack of tourist money.
