Despite a recommendation from hospital and county health officials to keep the county mask mandate in effect until Jan. 18 to allow adequate time following all holiday gatherings the Brown County Commission voted 3-0 to rescind the mask mandate that has been in effect since Nov. 16.
This goes into effect on Monday â however, the mask mandate in the City of Hiawatha remains in effect until such time the Hiawatha City Commission would make a decision to rescind it. In addition, the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska has issued a statement that they are NOT rescinding their mandate and masks ARE required on the reservation.
