The mayors of Elkhart, Goshen and Nappanee will each bring a city ordinance to their councils that will support the countywide restrictions and penalties related to COVID-19.
City councils in the three cities will meet Dec. 7 to discuss the proposed ordinances in support of the county’s efforts, officials announced Dec. 3. The city ordinances will last for the duration of the public health orders, if passed.
The ordinances, which recognize and support the adoption of Elkhart County’s Public Health Orders 05-2020 and 06-2020, as well as Restated County Ordinance 2020-38, authorize the mayors to designate enforcement teams to help implement the terms of the county ordinance within each city’s boundaries.
