Palm Beach County commissioners said Tuesday they will send a letter to Gov. Ron DeSantis asking him to move forward with the first phase of reopening.

Currently, Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties are excluded from all areas of Phase One of the plan, with the exception of elective surgeries.

Under Phase One, which started on Monday, restaurants and retail shops across Florida can operate at 25% capacity.
