(Cont. Ord. No. 2022-08, enacted on 27th day of June, 2022)
-page 3 of 7-
Requiring vaccination or proof of a negative COVID-19 test for large outdoor events between 3,000 and 4,999 attendees also will address several factors that increase the risk of transmission at those events, including crowding, prolonged duration, removal of masks for eating and drinking, and the increased likelihood contagious persons are present when a larger number of people are gathered. Additionally, requiring vaccination for individuals who enter City buildings will protect the health and safety of the City's workforce who themselves must be vaccinated and will protect the public health at large. The requirements also offer an alternative approach to stringent public health measures such as complete business closures that have been implemented previously.
