A flurry of activity, confusion as Washington continues phase one of reopening amid the new coronavirus

Vehicle dealers resuming sales. Religious groups offering drive-in services. Some car washes reopening.

Gov. Jay Inslee this week continued lifting restrictions in his stay-home order meant to slow the spread of the new coronavirus, part of phase one in his four-phase plan to reopen the state. Some outdoor recreation opened earlier this week.

By the end of Friday, Inslee鈥檚 office will be trying to issue guidance to restart the remaining phase-one businesses, according to Nick Streuli, Inslee鈥檚 external relations director. That would allow landscapers and pet walkers back to work, and for retail stores to offer curbside pickup.
