Ray Long, Morgan County Commission Chairman

Mask.

Mandatory masking now in effect in the city of decatur.

It's the latest step in morgan county to slow the spread of coronavirus.

Joining us via zoom this morning is morgan county commission chairman, ray long.

Chairman long, thank you for waking up with us this morning, it's always great to have you join us!

Wait for response -mr. chairman, a lot of people wondering now that decatur enacted mandatory masking, will the commission extend the order into something similar, like what's in place in madison county?

-you guys have a meeting set for 9 o'clock this morning, we didn't see anything on the agenda in regards to coronavirus, do you plan to address impacts and responses?

-we listened to the update yesterday from the coronavirus task force-- and it just seems not in morgan county, but across north alabama, health experts aren't effectively reaching people when it comes to encouringing social distancing and masking.

What are your thoughts on why that is?

-what about business owners concerned about a mask ordinance negatively impacting their revenues?

-do you have extra mask supplies for businesses?

Countywide how is your supply looking?

Morgan commission chairman ray long, thank you for your time and insight this morning.
