Due to the increased presence of COVID-19 in Alberta, Clearwater County has cancelled all non-essential public and staff events until May 1, 2020 and is implementing protocols to assist in managing risks of COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses.
In order to ensure business continuity of municipal services during the COVID-19 pandemic, Clearwater County is limiting all non-essential visitors into Clearwater County facilities. As of March 18, 2020, all County offices are closed to public access (this means that all essential County programs and services continue and municipal staff are available by appointment only), until further notice, and the public is encouraged to use alternative communication tools such as phone, email, website or social media.
At this time, regular Council meetings will continue, the public can watch the Council live stream and is encouraged to call, email or use the website to communicate with departments as opposed to visiting in person.
Clearwater County will continue to follow the direction of Alberta Health Services (AHS), which is the authority on this topic for municipalities.
