Lyon County s Disaster Declaration will now continue through mid-March.
County Commissioners approved extending the declaration during their recent action session Thursday morning. This is the fifth extension for the declaration that has been in place since Mar. 15.
Since its original adoption, the declaration has provided the county with easier access to major resources throughout the pandemic.
Lyon County Emergency Manager Jarrod Fell says without the declaration in place coupled with the well-publicized competition for PPE and other resources at the onset of the pandemic, the coronavirus impacts could have been far more severe over the past 10 months.
