Cayuga County, New York (The Citizen) Wegmans has been fined $1,000 by the Cayuga County Board of Health for its second violation of New York’s mask mandate during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The fine is the result of a hearing in December after a Cayuga County Health Department inspector observed a violation at Wegmans in Auburn. According to the hearing officer’s report, a customer was not wearing a face mask while less than six feet away of other people in a checkout line at the store.
A manager at the Wegmans in Auburn testified that the supermarket chain has a policy that allows customers to “enter the store without a face covering, to shop and cash out without a face covering, and not compel their removal.”
