Mask Mandate For City Employees To End in Lancaster

Lancaster Common Council members have voted to eliminate the mask mandate for city employees working in city facilities, including City Hall, beginning on Monday. The motion coincides with the decision to reopen City Hall to the public. During the pandemic, city officials met with visitors by appointment. The motion also allows officials to revert back to meeting with City Hall visitors by appointment, and re-implementing the employee mask mandate, should the number of COVID-19 cases increase. Masks will continue to be required for visitors to City Hall until Monday, May 24th.
