Below is a list of the three businesses that were cited since the city went under the safer-at-home order:
- Beta Night Club, near 19th and Blake streets — one on June 16 and the second citation on June 22.
- Gymnastics Plus, 6180 E. Warren Ave. — on May 21.
- Key Psychedelic Ripple Bar, 1700 N. Logan St. — on May 19, for on-site food consumption.
The fifth violation was a man, who was ticketed by park rangers for violating the closure of a park on July 5, according to Vigil.
Denver's mask requirement went into effect on May 6 in an effort to slow the spread of coronavirus in the city and county of Denver.
In March, Denver reported four businesses that were cited — one business twice — when the city was under the stay-at-home order, which was more restrictive than the current order. Those businesses were:
- Game Stop, 757 E. 20th Avenue
- Car Wash USA Express, 603 Santa Fe Drive
- Appliance Factory Mattress Kingdom, 1045 Zuni St.
- Hobby Lobby, 920 S. Monaco Parkway
