Executive Summary:
On March 2, 2020, the Sonoma County Director of Emergency Management issued a Proclamation of a Local Emergency related to the potential introduction of COVID-19 in the Sonoma County Operational Area.
On March 4, 2020, the Board of Supervisors ratified the declaration of local health emergency in the County of Sonoma made by the County’s Public Health Officer. The Board also ratified the Proclamation of a Local Emergency made by Sonoma County’s Director of Emergency Management and found that the circumstances of the potential introduction of COVID-19 in the Sonoma County Operational Area as described in the Director’s Proclamation of Local Emergency did support and justify the declaration of local emergency as set forth therein.
The conditions that gave rise to the local emergency no longer exist and staff recommends terminating the Proclamation of Local Emergency.
