A message from Nampa Mayor Kling

A MESSAGE FROM MAYOR KLING

This week Governor Brad Little issued a statewide stay-home order for Idaho residents to prevent the spread of COVID-19. I applaud this decision and am thankful for his leadership during this difficult time.

I would also like to acknowledge the health care workers, first responders, public health agencies and other members in our community right now who are working diligently to protect our citizens from this illness.

It's important to remember we are living in an unprecedented time in our nation's history and those in leadership are making the best decisions possible based on the facts available.

As we navigate the days and weeks ahead as a community, I want to take a few moments to reflect on what truly matters:

Your Health Matters. Food, Shelter and Safety Matter. Connecting Matters.

We would like to hear from you.

Please email us at nampaready@cityofnampa.us with questions, concerns, offers of encouragement or statements of what matters to you...

We have called a special city council meeting tomorrow morning,

Sat., March 28, 2020 beginning at 9:30 a.m.

HOW DOES IDAHO DEFINE ESSENTIAL SERVICES?

" The Stay-Home Order provides guidance on essential services. All people may leave their residences only for Essential Activities, Essential Governmental Functions, or to operate Essential Businesses. Individuals experiencing homelessness are exempt, but are strongly urged to obtain shelter, and governmental and other entities are strongly urged to make such shelter available as soon as possible and to the maximum extent. People at high risk of severe illness from COVID-19 and people who are ill are urged to stay in their homes as much as possible (except to seek medical care)."
