COVID-19 UPDATES

Abdallah Shriners Facility RE-OPENING

The Johnson County BOCC has recently revised orders on how non-essential businesses and social groups can now conduct business and gatherings. On Friday, May 29, Johnson County released a new 3-page document, attached below, to offer additional guidance to residents and businesses. The Johnson County Board of County Commissioners and the Johnson County Department of Health and Environment strongly recommend that Johnson County residents and businesses continue to adhere to the Ad Astra: A Plan to Reopen Kansas recommendations. By not placing county orders ourselves, we are relying on Johnson County residents and businesses to demonstrate responsibility, without enforcement, and exercise caution and consideration. More information can be found at JoCoGov.org
