County of Stettler updates operational COVID-19 safety precautions

County of Stettler Press Release November 6, 2020 @ 4:47pm published at 4:57pm.

With an abundance of caution, County of Stettler facilities implement mask-wearing requirements for facility visitors, staff and contractors.

In order to continue to protect our staff, our Council, our community, and the integrity of

County of Stettler operations, we are stepping up safety precautions both in County of

Stettler facilities and in the field. Beginning Monday, November 9, 2020, anyone entering a

County of Stettler facility will be required to wear a mask. Masks will be provided to those

without who are entering our facilities.

The County of Stettler remains committed to minimizing the spread of COVID-19 and

dedicated to taking precautionary measures to protect residents, visitors, and employees.

These precautionary measures are in response to a continuing trend of increases in cases

of COVID-19 throughout our province. We endeavor to support Alberta Health Services

efforts to again, flatten the curve of the rise in cases and relieve extra stress on health

workers and provincial facilities due to COVID-19. As of 3:30 PM on Friday,

November 6, 2020, the Government of Alberta interactive case map is reporting zero cases

in the Stettler County region.

County operations continue as normal Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Bill payments may be made in person or through online banking, over the phone, or through

our drop box at the front door of the Administration Building at 6602-44 Avenue, Stettler.

The Public Works Facility remains closed to the public. For more information on how to

make payments or to schedule a meeting, please contact us at 403-742-4441.
