If the gym was permitted to operate, the judge said the state could suffer 'immediate and irreparable harm.'
A Vermont judge sided with state Attorney General T.J. Donovan and ordered Club Fitness, a gym that opened amid the lockdown, to cease all in-person, indoor operations.
The governor ordered all gyms to close in March as part of the state's measures to curb the spread of a new coronavirus. Manovill toldhe initially complied with the order but reopened the gym's doors on May 1. He said his intention in reopening was to give people an outlet to improve their physical and mental health and wasn't guided by a desire to drive profits.
The Rutland Police Department received complaints about the business being open, and Corporal A. Heath Plemmons observed people working out less than six feet apart and not wearing masks on two occasions in May. The officer reported no one was cleaning fitness equipment in between uses, a claim Manovill rejected as false.
