The judge recognizes the hospitalization crisis, but says the evidence shows outdoor dining is “moderate risk at best” which can be mitigated, and the ban is a symbolic gestures which does not take into consideration the economic pain, etc, that it causes.

The judge is very heated. County is arguing it is obligated to keep the ban in effect as long as state restrictions are in effect. Judge says those are two different things.
