Lansing rescinds mask order
The Leavenworth Times
A week earlier, a majority of the Lansing City Council voted to extend the city’s mask order through the month of April. But council members voted Thursday to repeal the mask order.
Council members were expected to take some form of action Thursday related to face coverings because of a new state law that allowed statewide mask orders issued by the governor to expire at the end of March.
Gov. Laura Kelly issued a replacement mask order Thursday. But her new order was revoked by a Legislative Coordinating Council.
Lansing City Council members were presented with an ordinance Thursday that complied with the new state law. The ordinance, if approved, would have once again extended the city’s mask order through April 30.
