“Welcoming trick or treaters is always an enjoyable time,” he said in a news release. “(H)owever, we must continue to take precautions to prevent hte spread of COVID-19.”
“We mustn’t let our guard down now, even as the holidays approach so that our citizens will continue to have water, sewer and garbage services,” he added.
