Wasco County Commission Talks Face Coverings

Wasco County Commissioners discussed the face covering requirements now in effect around the state during their Wednesday meeting.  The Commission had planned to consider opting in to the requirements until Governor Kate Brown made them statewide.  Much of the discussion centered around helping businesses with what they are being asked to do, with North Central Public Health District Director Mimi McDonell pointing out that public health will work with businesses they regulate and Oregon Occupational Safety and Health will oversee others, with the emphasis on education.  Commissioner Scott Hege said Hood River County officials he reached out to told him they have found increased public compliance with the face covering mandate they went into nearly two weeks ago.
