Tonight, the commission voted to remain in the second phase of the Harvey County Health Reopening Plan regarding COVID-19 response through June 2. The local plan generally follows the guidance included in Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly's "Ad Astra: A Plan to Reopen Kansas" outline.

The Commission also agreed to increase mass gathering limits in Harvey County from 15 to 30 people.

The restrictions previously outlined in the State's reopening plan remain in place in Harvey County's local plan. Additionally, the County's plan restricts in-person visits at long-term care facilities through its first three phases.

Commissioners are anticipated to re-evaluate the local order at the Commission's June 2 meeting. That meeting will be held at 9 a.m. at the Harvey County Courthouse.
