Yakima Stays in Phase-3 of Reopening Plan
The Yakima County Commissioners say it s time to return the decisions over how to handle the COVID-19 pandemic back to local officials. On Tuesday the commissioners wrote a letter to the governor saying they want local control to make local decisions about current restrictions. They say they re not confident in the numbers the state uses to make decisions about the opening of counties.
