Effective Wednesday, July 1, all persons inside public buildings must wear a face covering. The mask order extends to public outdoor settings. This change is in response to a continued increase of COVID-19 cases in Jackson County and the surrounding area.

Tomorrow, July 1, Eastern Jackson County will be moving into Phase 2.5 of the recovery plan. Phase 2.5 allows in-person instruction at schools, playgrounds to reopen, and increased outdoor gathering limits to 100 people. It also includes guidance about the new mask order.

Have a safe and patriotic Independence Day! Please celebrate responsibly 🇺🇲
