Sacramento County’s
Public Health Order has been amended, effective 10 p.m., Saturday, November 21 to align with the State of California’s new limited “Stay at Home Order” as well as updated guidance on the wearing of face coverings.
The state also issued updated
guidance on the wearing of face coverings. People in California must wear face coverings when they are outside of the home, unless one of the exemptions applies. Exemptions include:
- Driving in a vehicle or working in a room alone
- When actively eating or drinking, provided that six feet of distance can be maintained
- Outdoors when at least six feet of distance can be maintained at all times
- Medical exemptions
Public Health has reopened its
waiver application for Elementary schools to apply for in-person learning while Sacramento County remains in the Tier 1 Purple.
