Mayor Signs Updated Civil Emergency Executive Order
Mayor G.T. Bynum has signed an updated Civil Emergency Executive Order that mirrors the State’s OURS Plan and reflects current COVID-19 modeling in the Tulsa area.
The updated OURS Plan encourages bars to practice enhanced sanitation and social distancing measures. Dr. Bruce Dart, THD, is leading an effort with local business owners to come up with best practices for bars in the City of Tulsa. Interested parties should visit the Tulsa Health Department website for specific guidance as it becomes available.
Most businesses are now open under the phased approach by the State of Oklahoma with safety precautions in place. For additional guidance and information, visit: www.okcommerce.gov/ours-plan/.
