PUBLIC NOTICE
The Town of Youngtown will reopen to the public on April 12th. Town Council, boards & commissions and public meetings will open to in-person attendance beginning with the May 6th, 2021 meeting. Remote options, however, will remain available to the public.
The reopening comes after Governor Doug Ducey announced Thursday, March 25, that the State of Arizona hit several important public health benchmarks as well as a decline in new positive COVID cases.
Executive Order 2021-06 issued by Governor Ducey on March 25 calls for any remaining government mask mandates to be phased out and states they cannot be enforced.
Per the Governor’s order, however, the Town retains the right to set and enforce mitigation policies in our Town government buildings and on public transportation.
Under the Governor’s orders, businesses may institute and enforce face covering policies to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, and they retain the right to refuse service to those who do not adhere to their policies.
Our parks have always been open, however our amenities were closed. The amenities are now available for use, however, the restrooms will remain closed.
For our in-person public meetings, we have the following guidelines:
*Physical distancing is required
*Wearing of face masks/coverings is recommended
*Please stay home if you are feeling sick
For more information, please contact the Town Manager at 623-933-8286.
Please note that due to the unpredictable nature of COVID-19, meeting protocols and Town business are subject to change at any time. The Mayor’s emergency proclamation remains in place while we monitor the current situation, although the mask mandate has expired. Thank you!
