promulgated shall have the force of law to the greatest extent possible.
These rules are a phased community mitigation process that allow businesses to return to full operations

businesses not compliant with these orders to remain closed for a time, as determined by the BCHD, sufficient
to ensure all appropriate control measures are instituted. Additionally, the Barry County Health Department,
upon notice of non-compliance with these Orders may initiate legal action to seek a court judgement to ensure
compliance.
Phase 2 Mitigation – Beginning June 26, 2020
All persons, organizations, and businesses
Requirements – Face coverings and physical distancing continue to be the most effective way to mitigate
the spread of COVID-19. Due to recent rapid increases of positive tests in and near Barry County as well
as the increase of COVID-19 cases in work places, these rules are be implemented to mitigate the spread
of COVID-19 and the need for any additional restrictions.
• Source Control Masking – Service providers/servers wearing a cloth or surgical style mask is
required when providing personal services where physical distancing is not practicable.
These services include, but are not limited to:
• Dine-in food and/or beverage service
• Tanning salons and services, nail services, spa type services, therapeutic
massage (unless under the care of a physician.)
• Hair cutting, styling, washing, or coloring services.
• Other types of non-physician dermatological services.
• Body decoration/modification services, including tattooing, piercing, branding,
scarification, shaping, implants, scalpelling, and painting.
Recommendations – Strongly suggested practices to lessen the chance of contracting COVID-19.
• Enhanced Hygiene Practices – Owners and organizers are responsible to ensure surfaces that
are frequently touched must be wiped with an appropriate antimicrobial solution that is allowed
to air dry between individual users. An easy way to do this is using a bleach solution (1/3 cup of
bleach in 1 gallon of water) in a spray bottle, sprayed on the surface and not wiped.
• Physical Distancing – Separation of persons or groups by a minimum of 6 feet) is recommended
at all times.
• All buildings open to the public – Including all businesses, government offices, organizations,
agencies, and places of worship) may return to maximum occupancy, as allowed by regulation
or ordinance.
• Persons at High Risk – Cloth face-coverings are recommended at all times when in public or
physical distancing (>6’) cannot be maintained. Persons who are greater 65 years of age, who
are immuno-compromised or who have chronic medical conditions are at a higher risk of contracting
COVID-19 and should follow the CDC guidance on face coverings.
