The City of Windsor has ended the Declaration of Municipal Emergency put in place two years ago at the onset of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
“As public health guidance continues to shift, and the federal and provincial governments lift restrictions, it is evident that the pressures that called for the declaration of an emergency locally have eased, and the declaration can safely be ended,” said Mayor Drew Dilkens.
The City of Windsor will continue to adhere to and promote all health and safety regulations to protect employees and the public, including advocating for vaccinations, enhanced cleaning protocols, wearing masks when social distancing is not possible and hand sanitizing as often as needed.
Public health officials have also advised that monitoring of COVID-19 cases and local health care capacity will continue so that, should it be necessary to consider alternative steps in the future, we will be ready to do so.
