Local Businesses Ask For Mask Cooperation Despite CDH Change If you can believe it, we are already creeping up on March of 2021. It has felt like the longest year ever--but here we are, nearly an official YEAR into a global pandemic. Everything has changed, so many are struggling, and the end really isn't in sight just yet. If you would have told us a year ago that FACE MASKS would be both sold on every street corner and the most controversial things ever, we may not have believed you. Well, here we are. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that there has been a lot of debate around masks here in the Treasure Valley. After November's election cycle, two Republicans took over two seats among the Ada County Commissioners. Many assumed that this would mean a vast shift on the Central District Health's Board of Health. It did. A controversial appointment of Raul Labrador to start the new year made a lot of noise and it didn't take long for the new Board of Health to drop the mask mandate in Ada and Valley Counties. Now, some businesses are asking for a little help--from us.
