The city's rule mandates anyone five and over entering a restaurant, bar, gym or entertainment venue show proof of their vaccination status.

The businesses are also required to post signage about the vaccine mandate and keep a written record describing how they are implementing their protocol for enforcing the order.

BACP said it conducted 121 checks, in the past week.
