SALT LAKE CITY Utah s capital city will continue to have a mask mandate Saturday and beyond while the rest of the county s mandate will expire along with the statewide order that expires Friday night.
Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall announced Wednesday that Salt Lake City will keep its mandate in place in all public settings beginning Saturday. The order was supported by the Salt Lake City Council. The mayor signed a proclamation that will keep the city s mandate in place from Saturday until the mayor rescinds the proclamation, or ends the city s state of emergency. We need to keep doing what has worked: wearing masks, she said, standing near the steps of the Salt Lake City-County Building. My job is to protect the people who live in this city, to try to protect the people who work in this city, and to protect the businesses who employ people here.
