COVID-19 Response
Scott County building mask requirements: Updated August 18, 2021
In light of the surge in COVID-19 cases and the emergence of the Delta variant throughout the state and locally, Scott County is again requiring employees to wear masks when conducting business indoors when two or more people are present (with certain exceptions). Patrons and other visitors to County facilities are strongly encouraged, although not required, to wear masks when conducting business with our staff and others.
PLEASE NOTE: Anyone entering the Scott County Justice Center building will still be required to continue to wear a mask and follow social distancing requirements.
We continue to encourage that people continue to wear masks when there are large gatherings in public spaces to protect those who have not been vaccinated, either due to their choice or due to their specific health conditions.
**Scott County employees will continue performing health screenings and wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with our clients and customers in close proximity and closed spaces (e.g., in-home visits, providing transportation, et cetera).
**In addition, many of our services have state or federal requirements related to health and safety (such as the Scott County Jail, the Court system/Justice Center, the Juvenile Alternatives Facility, Transit, Public Health) and those must continue to be followed.
If you have questions about any specific department or business unit practices or restrictions, we encourage you to call ahead. The Scott County general number is 952-445-7750, simply ask to be directed to the right area.
