WASHINGTON CO. COMMISSIONERS TO CONSIDER EXTENSION OF DISASTER DECLARATION THURSDAY

  

Washington County Commissioners will hold an emergency meeting tomorrow (Thursday) morning to potentially extend the county’s disaster declaration.

The county’s current state of disaster declaration due to the health emergency of COVID-19 is set to expire on Friday without extension by commissioners.  The declaration was initially signed March 18^th by County Judge John Durrenberger, and extended through this Friday at the court’s meeting last Tuesday.

Commissioners will also consider approving the use of Zoom conferencing software for extending commissioners court meetings to be accessible online, beginning Tuesday, April 7^th.  The item was discussed during court Tuesday, but due to the agenda incorrectly listing Tuesday, March 7^th, and not Tuesday, April 7^th, it could not be approved.

Commissioners will meet tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. at the Washington County Courthouse Annex.
