Highland Park mask order

Highland Park Mayor Nancy Rotering issued an emergency order requiring all individuals in the city over age 2 to wear a face covering when engaging in essential services. The order, which takes effect Monday, will apply to employees, residents and visitors for the duration of the city's emergency declaration. Individuals must wear a face covering over their nose and mouth while engaging in the following activities permitted in the state's stay-at-home order: working in or patronizing essential businesses, such as grocery or hardware stores, restaurant carryout, banks, construction sites, automobile repair shops, landscaping and home/curbside delivery carriers; shopping for necessary supplies and services or visiting a health care professional; riding in public transportation, taxis, or ride shares. Homemade, fabric face coverings meet the requirement.
