> If Tesla is deemed an essential business, why is Jimmy's Bar and Grill being forced to close?

According to this document [1] (found via reddit comment here [2]), I found Alameda County's list of essential businesses. Tesla is not definitely in any of these groups, but one could easily argue it should be classified in Category XV (supporting essential business Category VI). "Jimmy's Bar and Grill" would definitely fit in Category XIII, required to close except for the production of takeout and pickup.

i. Healthcare Operations and Essential Infrastructure;

ii. Grocery stores, certified farmers’ markets, farm and produce stands, supermarkets, food banks, convenience stores, and other establishments engaged in the retail sale of canned food, dry goods, fresh fruits and vegetables, pet supply, fresh meats, fish, and poultry, and any other household consumer products (such as cleaning and personal care products). This includes stores that sell groceries and also sell other nongrocery products, and products necessary to maintaining the safety, sanitation, and essential operation of residences;

Schools and other entities that typically provide free food services to students or members of the public may continue to do so under this Order on the condition that the food is provided to students or members of the public on a pick-up and take-away basis only.
