That other than the exceptions included in this Section, Live Performance Venues shall not host events prior to July 1, 2020.... That no Convention shall operate in this state prior to July 1, 2020.... That events held at Live Performance Venues shall be classified in tiers based upon the fire code capacity of the venue.

Notes
Defined 'Convention' (organized event of more than 100 persons required to register, at an indoor facility, more than four hours, including exhibitions, trade shows, conferences and business retreats) and 'Live Performance Venue'; the shelter-in-place list dropped the 65-and-older category from this order forward but kept long-term-care residents and every enumerated condition.
