Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers announced Wednesday that with the lifting of pandemic restrictions, Snohomish County government facilities will reopen to the public Tuesday, July 6.
When visiting county facilities, visitors and staff are required to follow Washington state and Snohomish Health District guidelines, including wearing masks if unvaccinated.
“Snohomish County residents can be proud that they have beaten back four waves of the COVID-19 pandemic and have been vaccinated in significant numbers,” said Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers. “We had the first case in the United States right here in Snohomish County, and we have been hard at work since January 2020 to limit death and disease. As we reopen Snohomish County government facilities to the public, we want to ensure everyone is as safe as possible.”
