DECLARED STATE OF EMERGENCY EXTENDED IN THE TOWN OF
ALMA, NEW YORK
The Town of Alma, following the Governor's declaration of a State of Emergency
for the State of NY, and Allegany County's declaration, originally declared a State
of Emergency to prepare for and manage Covid-19 response on March 15, 2020.
The State and County states of emergency have continued since that date, with the
County extending its State of Emergency through July 12, 2020.
Last weekend, Allegany County DOH reported three more documented cases of
Covid-19. Last Wednesday 2 more new cases of COVID-19 were recorded, and
the number of cases continues to climb all over the US. It is essential that we work
together within our various purviews to keep one another and ourselves safe and
healthy. Like the Mayor of the Village of Alfred, I look forward to the day when
we will have worked together in all levels of government in New York State to
remove the threat. Under those circumstances we will be able to relax a bit, but
not entirely, until there is a vaccine.
Accordingly, as of 10:00 P.M. June 12, 2020 with the power given by New York
State Executive Law §24, I, Ronald Staedt, Town of Alma Supervisor, find that the
public safety continues to be imperiled by the Corona Virus Covid-19, and hereby
extend the declared state of emergency in the Town of Alma for an additional
period of thirty (30) days, through July 12, 2020, unless sooner rescinded by me.
During said time there will be no meetings of the Town Board or of any board or
committee appointed by the Town, however local orders may be enacted.
Ronald Staedt
Town of Alma Supervisor
