In light of the ongoing pandemic, the Clark County Council this week decided to keep its public meetings in a virtual format through the end of September at which time councilors will re-evaluate and consider whether to open meetings to in-person attendance.

The council also has canceled its meeting on Sept. 7, a Board of Health meeting scheduled for Sept. 8. The council will resume meetings the week of Sept. 13, with previously scheduled work sessions and council time on Sept. 15.

Council meeting agendas, participation instructions and a public comment form are on the county’s website at clark.wa.gov/councilors/clark-county-council-meetings .

County employees and visitors entering county buildings are subject to the governor’s face covering mandate which requires everyone over the age of 5 to wear a face covering regardless of vaccination status.

Residents can get up-to-date COVID-19 information including infection data and how to get vaccinated on the county’s website at clark.wa.gov/public-health/novel-coronavirus .
