People will not be allowed “on any public street, avenue, boulevard, place, walkway, alley, park or any public area…within the boundaries of the county,” the curfew order said. There are exemptions for police, other emergency responders, National Guard or military personnel deployed to the county, news reporters, and “individuals who can establish to the satisfaction of a peace officer that they are in such place for the sole purpose of traveling to their home or workplace or to obtain medical assistance.”

The following Alameda County cities had orders in place before the broader curfew was imposed:

Alameda: 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.

Hayward:  8 p.m. to 5 a.m., until June 8. The declaration exempts police and other emergency responders; news reporters; people who are homeless; and “individuals who can establish to the satisfaction of a police officer that they are in such place for the sole purpose of traveling to a home or workplace or to obtain medical assistance.”

San Leandro: 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.

San Francisco: 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. The mayor’s initial declaration on Sunday specified just one night, but city officials say it is in effect until further notice. The curfew “requires people within the City of San Francisco to stay indoors .” Exceptions are made for police and other emergency personnel; news reporters; people who are homeless; and those “who can establish to the satisfaction of a peace officer that they are in such place for the sole purpose of traveling to a home or workplace or to obtain medical assistance.”
