Rockwall County Judge David Sweet announced on his Facebook page that he has applied with the state to re-open bars in Rockwall County.
Judge Sweet said, “Per direction of Executive order GA-32 issued by Governor Abbott, County Judges can request that bars and similar establishments ( breweries, wineries and distilleries ) be allowed to open in their counties. I have submitted the request in Rockwall County.”
Governor Abbott announced last week that bars are eligible to open on October 14th at the discretion of the county judge.
