With the change in level comes a change in guidelines and restrictions. Visit the CDPHE Safer at Home website for details and resources or click here for a brief summary of regulations.

Mask Requirements

On November 9, 2020, Gov. Jared Polis extended the statewide mask mandate for yet another 30 days to help slow to spread of COVID-19.

The executive order requires everyone over the age of 10 to wear a face mask inside public spaces and while attending or visiting outdoor spaces when six-foot distancing is not possible.

• A face mask and or a face covering is required for anyone 10 years of age or older

• The state order applies to all public indoor spaces.

• Exemptions to the face mask order are listed on page three (read the full Executive Order here)
