The Monroe County Board of Health Votes to Extend the Mask Mandate Through October

During the Monroe County Board of Health’s meeting this Wednesday, they voted to extend the county-wide mask mandate through October 31st.

This decision was arrived at on the basis that Monroe County is still in the “orange” advisory level, though if it were to drop to the “blue” advisory level, the mandate would expire. 

The extension to the mandate must be approved by the Monroe County Board of Commissioners during their upcoming meeting on Sept. 29 to become official.
