TO: Residents of the Town of Berne

RE: Town information COVID-19

Nearly 16 months after restrictions were set and Executive Orders from our governor that set restrictions to the open meetings laws, I am very happy to announce all restrictions and limitations regarding open meetings within the Town of Berne shall be lifted. All meetings shall be open to the public, with no mask or social distance requirements.

Out of courtesy we ask those not vaccinated to wear a mask and social distance.

All participation at meetings (board members or public) will be in person.

Strict adherence to the Public Comment Policy will be required.
