IRON MOUNTAIN Dickinson County adopted a resolution Monday protesting “undue burdens” placed on businesses as a result of Michigan’s pandemic restrictions.
The board debated the topic during a Zoom meeting that featured a weak audio feed for some participants. The resolution was a late addition to the agenda and no copy was provided to The Daily News before the meeting or within hours after adjournment.
The action appears similar to a measure approved earlier this month in Delta County, declaring it a sanctuary county for businesses affected by COVID-19 shutdowns.
Likewise, the Dickinson board said it would not single out or harm any business owner that opens an establishment while taking responsible precautions.
