GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Green Bayâs city council voted 9-3 to extend the cityâs mask mandate until March 31st.
It was set to expire at midnight last night.
Even though there’s a statewide mask mandate, the city has kept extending its mandate as a fallback option.
It almost took precedent last week when the Republican-controlled legislature was set to vote to repeal the state mandate. However, it delayed the vote after realizing the state could lose millions of dollars in food assistance.
At Green Bay’s meeting, there was an amendment offered to only extend the city mandate two weeks, in hopes a county-wide decision could be made.
