Utila Municipality 2020-05-18
Summary of council meeting at 2020-05-18 12:00 and discussion of municipal projects
Thanks to everyone for staying home during the quarantine, this helped with ensuring we remain COVID-19 free.
Request to read and obey the rules for local commerce, it’s a two week trial and may not be renewed if the island doesn’t follow the rules. Note from Paul: I have summarised the rules on the curfew page.
There is a meeting at Officina La Mujer at 15:00 today to go over the biosecurity measures with restaurants. If you own or operate a restaurant, please do to this meeting.
