UPDATE: Washoe takes over COVID response after state OK s county s fourth reopening plan

UPDATE: Washoe takes over COVID response after state OK s county s fourth reopening plan Reno-Gazette-Journal 2 hrs ago James DeHaven, Reno Gazette Journal © Andy Barron/RGJ Washoe County Commissioner Bob Lucey answers questions during a press conference on the Coronavirus at the Washoe County Administration Complex on Friday March 13, 2020. Editor s note: This story was updated with new information from the state of Nevada. The fourth time was the charm when it came to Washoe County winning state approval for a plan to reopen the region’s COVID-clobbered economy.  County commissioners, who have had at least three local COVID management blueprints rejected by state officials, on Monday OK’d a recovery rollout that retains mask-wearing and social distancing requirements recommended by local, state and federal health authorities. The state s COVID-19 Task Force approved the plan hours later, allowing the county to officially take control of pandemic r

Washoe puts new COVID plan up for state task force approval

County Commission Chair Bob Lucey last month launched a pair of ill-fated attempts to unilaterally drop the social distancing rule, and at least partially part ways with the mask mandate.

Lucey pushes to drop mask rules as counties take over COVID mitigation

But conservatives on the board of county commissioners loudly objected to that vaccination goal, along with the plan’s reliance on the Truckee Meadows COVID Risk Meter developed at the University of Nevada, Reno. They wanted, and got, the plan’s inoculation target dropped to 50 percent, while nixing all of its recommended social distancing requirements at outdoor venues.  Chairman Bob Lucey agreed with Commissioner Vaughn Hartung that many of the plan’s mask-wearing requirements should also be dropped, though county attorneys cautioned that could invite a clash with the governor’s office.  Eventually, the pair joined two other commissioners in adopting major changes that will, among other things, leave the enforcement of outdoor mask-wearing rules up to individual businesses and entertainment venues. Commissioner Jeanne Herman cast the lone vote against the amendments.
