ASPEN, Colo. Pitkin County officials have been meeting with their counterparts from other rural resort communities to try to figure out a uniform plan for COVID-19 restrictions after state-mandated restrictions become voluntary later this month, an official said Tuesday.
The state is expected to make the color-coded COVID-19 dial restrictions for counties voluntary April 16, with two likely exceptions, Pitkin County Manager Jon Peacock said.
Those exceptions are expected to include maintaining limits on indoor, high-risk environments at 50% capacity and no more than 500 people, and having a “snapback” provision to put dial requirements back in place if local hospital capacity exceeds an established threshold, he said.
