UPDATE COVID-19 GUIDANCE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

 

TOWN 

OF 

HULL 

UPDATE COVID-19 GUIDANCE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY January 4th, 2022

 

 

As the new Covid variant becomes more prevalent it is necessary to introduce a series of protective measures to preserve the Town’s ability to provide essential services for residents. Many Town departments are staffed with a few employees and the loss of one or two departmental staff member puts the service of that department at risk.

 

Effective immediately, there will be limited public access to the following public buildings; Town Hall, the Light Department, Library, Senior Center, Public Works, Police and Fire Stations and the Wastewater Treatment Office.

 

Members of the public are requested to ring for service at the front door of each location. A staff member will greet them and arrange for their service request to be met. Alternatively the public is encouraged to call or

use on-line services with any request they may have.

 

These guidelines will be in effect for the next several weeks and will be subject to adjustment as conditions warrant.

 

 

•     Masks are required in all public buildings regardless of vaccination status

 

 

•     Social distance is encouraged at all times

 

 

•     Restricted entry into buildings – we will meet and service at front doors

 

 

•     We offer a wide variety of services via telephone/internet

 

 

•     All staff will be reporting in person daily

 

 

•     Board and Committee Meetings will be remote (with exception of the School Committee)

 

While we understand the guidelines may cause some inconvenience our goal is to continue to provide service in a challenging health environment. We thank everyone for their patience and we hope to return to normal operations as quickly as possible. Thank you.
