Greetings!
This Friday marks the 6th week in a row that we’re writing about COVID-19 in this newsletter. The City began providing information about precautionary measures everyone should be taking, and began planning for continuity of essential City services. Since that time, every day of every week has brought more information about the spread of the virus, and more and increasing City, County, State, and Federal actions.
We all need to heed the expert advice of health professionals, shelter in place, and practice social distancing. The more everyone shelters in place, the more chance we’ll have of being able to eventually (and sooner) return to life as we knew it in Pacifica.
The City continues to
maintain our webpage about the Coronavirus as the primary portal of information from the City, including Key Updates such as communications from the Mayor. Please do your part to share this information with family, friends, and neighbors you know who may not have on-line access. Take care of yourself, your family, your friends, and your neighbors.
We would like recognize our first responders, Pacifica Police Department, North County Fire Authority, and our Public Works (Field Services, Engineering and Wastewater Treatment Plant) Department for the admirable work that they have, and continue to provide. I would also like to recognize our City of Pacifica employee team for their hard work and commitment to serving our Pacifica community in this difficult time.
Sincerely,
LORENZO HINES, JR., ICMA-CM
Assistant City Manager
