Moving to the end of the governor's 5 phase plan to re-open the state.

Illinois is in phase "2" currently.

Phase 3 begins may 29th.

At 5 o'clock...we told you more non essential businesses will be able to reopen at that time.

Now..we hear from some of those businesses.

News 10's richard solomon joins us now live in the newsroom he has more in tonight's team coverage.

Retail stores and salons are just some of the non-essential businesses that will be re-opening.

I spoke with some who say they've waited a long 2 months to get back to work.

You will have a set of new rules going out to stores or other services starting next friday in marshall..

People will still have to wear a face mask.

Jodi davison is a cosmetologist at polished day spa.

She's preparing for a flood of appointments.

Davison says many salons are waiting to hear back from the health department on the next steps they'll have to take.

But she says it's good to finally have a date t o get back to work.

"you're talking a couple months without any pay at all and it's been tough.

To have that normalcy to be back we strive for it in so many different areas of life just to be able to have it in just this one little part that we can touch other people is great" but not all places plan to re-open right away.

Lesa trudeau is the owner of back in the woods retail shop.

She says they're waiting until june 1st to open their doors.

This will give her more time to see just exactly how other stores are adapting to the changes.

[take fs] "our shop is supposed to be fun.

If people aren't healthy then that doesn't matter.

You've got to, you've got to have everybody's safety at the beginning before they can come in and shop and feel comfortable and have a good time."

If everything goes according to plan..the state will be completely re-opened during phase 5.
