However, restricting inter-county and inter-state travel is unconstitutional and sure as hell if this county opens there'll be no restrictions on visitors.

The idea is people coming from outside the the general area. If I was a truck driver making a delivery of goods, lets say from a distribution center around Sacramento, to county like Modoc or Sierra. I would be mindful about where I was coming from and would not be making unnecessary stops, doing take out only for food and have a face mask available to wear. I would not have to be asked to. Do you have some better ideas ?

There'll be no restrictions on anything, visitors, truckers, guests, etc. (Modoc) I'm not even sure they'd require masks in stores. The only thing is I'm not sure if casino will repoen when they reopen restaurants. Most people in this county aren't going to be conscious and don't give a damn about covid, frankly. There're piles of garbage laying in the front yards around town, I'd be more concerned with something bad coming out of these piles, but they aren't.
Truck drivers are going to stop and eat without takeout, if places got opened.
Sierra is a very different county much closer to "civilization". There's lots of second homes there.

Of course they're conscious of it.

“This is a plan, this is not an order,” the Modoc County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. “This is simply what we are proposing that is eligible to open if preventative measures are possible. We want the option to be given to business owners so that when they feel the time is right, they can make that decision. … We need to do this in a smart and strategic way to keep us all healthy.”

Officials have said maintaining public health will be a top priority.

“We’re doing it very strategically and in stages just as the governor is recommending and we feel confident in that,” Modoc County Sheriff Tex Dowdy told KRCR-TV News.

People there aren't conscious about stuff like covid... you're reading official script.
You have to spend time around some of these rural counties.
There're piles of household garbage laying in the front yards and asbestos-ladden construction junk laying anywhere without abatement, and trash burned in-town all the time. It's a different world from coastal cities.
And people on meth are going to come up to your face, and they're not going to wear a mask. And there's nothing one can do about it.
But yes, if they don't reopen they might really bite the dust, it's a dying place heading ghost town way, the was a lot of business lost earlier without covid.

LOL. You make it sound as if all the residents there bury their heads in the sand.

The Modoc County reopening came with health rules. Restaurants and bars were allowed to host diners, but only at half the businesses’ capacity....

"We are all trying to stay safe as possible,” Gates told the TV station. “All the businesses that are open have on their front have a COVID-19 precaution statement and we are all trying to stay safe.”

Not every institution that could reopen plans to do so, though. Schools remained closed, for one thing.

“It’s an unsure thing,” said Ken Entwistle, senior pastor of GracePoint Church of the Nazarene in Alturas. “We, of course, want to open things back up but, at the same point, it’s that unknown.”
