The Jefferson County Health Board has upped the cap on the number of people who can attend events at one time in the county, with a target of 150 by May. The Board voted March 2 to increase the cap to 50 in March, effective March 5, and then to 100 in April. In May, the Board is shooting for a cap of 150, contingent on the COVID-19 case numbers. Beginning March 5, events with 50 or more people will still need to submit a health plan through the Public Health Department, according to Health Officer Sandy Sacry. The Board had previously been following the state mandate, which capped events at 25, and was enacted by former Gov. Steve Bullock.Â
