While we continue to make progress, it’s important to remember that the COVID-19 pandemic is still active. Residents, business owners, and employees must continue to observe physical distancing requirements and prevention techniques outlined under the “Reopening Safer at Work and in the Community for Control of COVID-19” Order.  Failure to comply with this action’s provisions constitutes a threat to public health and is a crime and punishable by fine, imprisonment, or both.
