Burlington COVID-19 Task Force Meeting 22
On Wednesday, July 14, we held our 22nd Burlington COVID-19 Task Force meeting.As we move into Step 3 and more businesses and activities reopen, Halton’s COVID-19 case numbers continue to trend downwards and our Regional vaccination numbers continue to increase as more residents get their second dose.We want to thank all our residents who continue to go above and beyond to help keep our community safe and healthy. We encourage that support to continue as more local businesses start to reopen and expand their reopenings and we continue to deal with issues like food security and reopening anxiety. We hope that everyone has a safe and enjoyable summer.Here are the minutes from our meeting with updates from Burlington Fire, local Councillors, Burlington Library, and more: COVID-19 Task Force Meeting #22 Highlights.RELATED LINKS:
