Members of the local community came together last Saturday at the Goochland County Administration Building for a peaceful demonstration against the mistreatment of African-Americans and people of color around the world. The gathering was part of a nation-wide wave of similar demonstrations happening around the world. For more photos from Saturday’s event, see page 3.
Beginning this week, Goochland County Government is implementing Phase Two of the county’s Transitional Operations Plan. County government offices and facilities are once again open to the public during the business hours of 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m., and all patrons will be required to follow prescribed social distancing practices. All patrons aged ten and over entering all county buildings shall wear a facial covering over the nose and mouth. Children over the age of two are strongly encouraged, but not required, to wear a facial covering. If you do not have a face covering, please request one from the department or office you will be visiting. Goochland County will honor the five identified face covering exceptions for patrons and staff. see Phase Two > page 2
