On Jan. 7, 2021, Gov. Reynolds signed a new Public Health Disaster proclamation that modifies existing public health measures designed to reduce the spread of COVID-19. The proclamation continues to require that when people are in an indoor public space, and unable to social distance for 15 minutes or longer, masks are required to be worn.
Spectator limits for sporting and recreational gatherings, including for high school-sponsored events are now lifted. All other public health measures have been extended until Saturday, Feb. 6, 2021.
The proclamation can found online.
The City of Waukee's Mayoral proclamation is not in effect at this time, as to prevent confusion and conflicting requirements.
Questions?
Businesses and residents should refer to the Office of the Governor at (515) 281-5211 for any questions related to COVID-19 mitigation efforts such as mask requirements, closures and more.
Thank you to everyone in the Waukee community for helping to keep each other safe and healthy.
