Starting on Tuesday, the City of Prince George will be asking everyone to wear non-medical masks inside civic facilities.

Signs will be placed at the entrances of civic facilities, along with hand sanitizer and disposable masks.

“Since the pandemic began, the city has followed the advice from (provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry) and implemented her orders and recommendations,” Mayor Lyn Hall said in a press release. “We appreciate that physical distancing isn’t always possible in the facilities that we have opened, and so we are following her advice in regards to masks and communicating an expectation that everyone in our facilities should wear a mask if they can’t keep their distance from one another.”

The new expectation regarding masks applies to visitors and staff at the city's facilities.
