  3-19-20  Important Message from the Mayor

President Trump has declared a National State of Emergency based on the impact of COVID-19 becoming a pandemic event and Governor Ivey has also declared a State of Emergency as relates to COVID-19 in the State of Alabama.

As Mayor, I have decided to immediately take further action in this emergency circumstance to address the COVID-19 impacts on our town and community, and to further declare a State of Emergency in Lowndesboro, Alabama.

We know COVID-19 poses a serious public health risk to our Town stemming from it being a novel respiratory disease, impacting our town, schools, and churches as well as our civic and social organizations.  I have talked to the preachers in our area and they are discontinuing church activities for the next few weeks.  Please refrain from gatherings of ten or more people. There should also be at least six feet between people.  

This action is required in order to be proactive in this serious emergency situation.  For updated guidelines to aid in Alabama’s efforts to reduce the spread of this virus, go to CORONAVIRUS.GOV and the Alabama Department of Public Health website.  Please take care and be patient and we will all get through this critical time.  Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
