City Ordinance No. 24, passed and signed in July, 2020, mandates that “every person who goes out in public spaces for any purpose including travel to work, purchase of basic necessities, going out to exercise, attend to medical or emergency reasons, or as part of one’s work is required to use a face mask at all times. The face mask should be worn properly, covering the nose and mouth, at all times.”
