If you go inside any county-owned buildings in Payette County, you’ll now need to wear a face mask.
The Board of County Commissioners passed the new rule that applies to all employees and the public.
In a press release, the Payette County Sheriff’s Office says commissioners will work with Southwest District Health to determine risk levels and if the rule needs to change.
The mask can be a commercial one or reusable cloth covering. They will have signs posted at all entrances making sure people are aware.
