Town of Harrisburg issued the following announcement on July 24.
Gov. Roy Cooper has issued an executive order requiring people to wear face coverings while out in public where physical distancing of 6 feet from other people who are not members of the same household or residence is not possible.
North Carolina will also remain under Safer At Home Phase 2 of lifting COVID-19 restrictions until Friday, August 7.

On July 13, 2020, Town Council approved a motion requiring any person visiting Town facilities or parks to wear a face covering. The Governor’s preexisting Executive Order No. 147 did not apply to local government facilities, which required Town Council to make that determination. Face coverings must be properly worn, covering the nose and mouth.
Those participating in Harrisburg Parks and Recreation athletics, programs or camps are exempt from wearing a face covering. Otherwise, the Town’s face covering requirement follows the same guidelines as Governor Cooper’s mandate.
