The shelters will be open if needed as the danger of severe weather takes precedent. There are some procedural changes and requirements if you have a need of the shelters:
- The shelters will be open only during the time of an imminent threat of bad weather.
- Wash or sanitize your hands before entering.
- Social distancing will be enforced. Stay with your family group.
- Use of a mask is required, covering your mouth and nose. If you do not currently have a mask, attempt to find one now. It is possible some masks will be available at the shelter but supplies are extremely limited. Don't depend on a mask being provided.
- If you are ill, inform the shelter staff.
- Limit your movement once inside.
- Be respectful of others
- No pets allowed (as always)
- Leave immediately once the threat has passed and sanitize again
