NIPOMO, Calif. – After San Luis Obispo County did not move forward to Red Tier, business owners and workers were frustrated after hoping for a better outcome.

The County remains in the Purple Tier of the State's Reopening Plan, being the strictest tier in the state.

Rey Ruiz, a cook at California Grill hopes the county moves forward to the Red Tier soon. He said restrictions that are in place in the Purple Tier have put a damper on sales.

"We had to close down early a lot of days due to that. [Indoor dining] makes a big difference," Ruiz said.
