Subject:City Council Meeting Comments November 18, 2020
Dear City Council members,
I am so pleased to see that Rexburg is considering a mask mandate. In the past months I have been very disappointed
that our community has been unable to pull together to help curb the numbers of Covid cases. Ideally, the decision to
wear a mask should be an individual choice. However, we have proven as a community that we are not able to set aside
personal comfort in order to protect one another.
I am hopeful that in this critical time, with direction from our city leaders, we will be able to work together for a
common good. Decreased Covid numbers will give us freedoms that we may lose otherwise. If we are able to enforce
the wearing of masks, businesses will continue operating, religious meetings will resume, and school can meet in person.
But, if we are unable to implement a simple mask mandate, we will lose so much!
Thank you for considering the safety and welfare of our community.
Hilary Cameron
