Stay Safe Reopening Plan
OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
recommendation
For over a year now, city facilities have been closed to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While this has impacted city operations, staff has been able to pivot and continue to offer an exceptional level of service to the community.
As the City continues to navigate these uncertain times, our priority has and will continue to be the health and safety of our community members and employees. As we begin the planned reopening of city facilities on July 1, 2021, this Stay Safe Reopening Plan will guide our efforts to welcome residents and staff back to city facilities.

• Provide services and programs, and continue field operations
• Conduct public events and meetings
• Develop a general timeline for reopening public facilities
• Implement “normal” and “hybrid” work schedule opportunities
• Apply the State of Washington guidelines to prevent the spread of the coronavirus disease
• Determine the frequency and need for heightened sanitization/janitorial services in city facilities
