Wappinger Town and New York State COVID-19 Restrictions Lift as State Reaches 70% Vaccination Rate

***Wappinger Town and New York State COVID-19 Restrictions Lift as State Reaches 70% Vaccination Rate***

Today, June 15, 2021, NYS Governor Andrew M. Cuomo announced that state-mandated COVID restrictions on commercial and social settings will be lifted effective immediately.

Those commercial and social settings include the following: sports and recreation, construction, manufacturing, trade, child care, camps, food services, offices, real estate, buildings, agriculture, fishing, forestry, amusement and family entertainment, personal care services, gyms, retail, malls, movie theaters, and other commercial settings.

According to the Governor’s Office, “Unvaccinated individuals are responsible for maintaining social distancing of six feet and wearing a mask, per CDC Guidance. Large-Scale Events Venues, Pre-K to 12 Schools, Public Transit, Homeless Shelters, Correctional Facilities, Nursing Homes and Health Care Settings will be exempt and will still adhere to the State’s existing COVID-19 Health Protocols.”

The Town of Wappinger joins excited New Yorkers across the State in lifting these restrictions on our local businesses, but still encourages our Town staff and residents to continue to take temperatures regularly and wash and sanitize hands. Although businesses can remove plastic barriers and relax State protocols, Wappinger Town Hall will continue to keep up the protective plastic screens and our increased sanitizing to best protect those who visit Town Hall. We are proud to say that Town Hall remains fully open and our Department of Parks & Recreation is offering a wide variety of programming for our seniors and youth, including our popular Summer Camp at our Martz Field Recreation Facility.

The Town of Wappinger feels that today is a momentous day and thanks our residents and businesses for their vigilance and caution during this 472 day pandemic. The Town, County, and State asks that you please continue to be safe, aware of other variants of COVID-19, and get vaccinated.
