THE UPS AND DOWNS

Just wanted to check in and see if you have a list of businesses that have been closed down due to COVID-19? I have seen a few on my daily drive down the 101, but didn’t know if there was an official link or list. Thanks! Brenda D. Encinitas I’ve seen and heard about a few businesses that just couldn’t sustain through the crisis and it definitely saddens us, Brenda, but at the same time, I’ve seen many businesses flourish through these challenging times. We get a lot of hope from the new spots that have recently opened up in the face of all this and we love to see that! We’re very excited to welcome these new endeavors to our town and look forward to covering each and every one in future issues.
