Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On March 10, 2020, the Board of Supervisors ratified the Local Emergency related to 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) as proclaimed by the Chief Executive Officer/Director of Emergency Services and ratified the Existence of a Local Health Emergency as Proclaimed by the Health Officer on March 4, 2020. The Board has continued to receive regular updates on the status of COVID-19 in Mendocino County. Since that time, the Board of Supervisors has received update during each meeting related to COVID-19.
Summary of Request:
Mendocino County Public Health has been actively responding to the threat of COVID-19 since early January 2020. On March 4, 2020, Mendocino County declared a local health emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mendocino County Public Health confirmed the first case of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in Mendocino County on March 18, 2020; currently, Mendocino County has had four positive cases, all of which have recovered. On this date, the Mendocino County Health Officer issued a Health Order directing all county residents to Shelter-In-Place, effective starting from March 18, 2020 at 10 p.m. until April 7, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. Since that time, revised orders were issued with the most recent issued on May 8, 2020. The SIP order is in place until June 8, 2020.
In mid-May, the Governor released an outline of a plan for relaxing its stay-at-home orders, which includes four stages. In preparation, Mendocino County worked with the business community to develop sector-by-sector safety guidelines for an expanded workforce. On May 19, 2020, the County of Mendocino Submitted an Attestation Plan/Variance to State 2 of California’s Roadmap to Modify the Stay-at-Home Order; this plan was accepted by the State Department of Public Health less than 24 hours after submission.
As a result of the imminent threat presented to Mendocino County’s public health due to COVID-19, the Board of Supervisors will receive brief updates on the following:
• County Services/OES Update: Carmel J. Angelo
• Health Officer Briefing/Shelter in Place Order Update & Variance to Stage 2 & 3: Dr. Mimi Doohan
• Fiscal Update: Darcie Antle
• Code Enforcement Update: Sheriff, Health and Human Services Agency/Special Investigative Unit, Planning and Building Services/Code Enforcement
