Santa Clara County slapped fines on 181 retailers over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend that included Black Friday for failing to properly notice social distancing requirements.

County officials said they inspected 427 stores and netted more than $115,000 in fines, ranging from $250 to as much as $3,750 each, during their “enhanced Black Friday COVID-19 Business Compliance effort” that concluded Sunday. Fines may continue to accrue daily until businesses correct the violations and submit a compliance statement.
