This approach consists of: Staff & Town Hall Safety; Building Department New Rules and Procedures; and Resident New Protocols and Safety Measures. Staff & Town Hall Safety Measures: • Protective glass partitions have been installed in the reception area and in the building department. This provides a clear separation barrier, similar to those found in banks and (now) in grocery stores, between the public and our employees • Staff has been issued and is required to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) when outside or in areas with the public • Staff has been instructed to continue to practice good hygiene with hand washing and hand sanitizing • Staff temperatures are taken daily, upon arriving at work • No more than one employee is permitted in the kitchen area at any given time • Town Hall is open by appointment only – walk-ins are discouraged, however if you must come to Town Hall without first making an appointment, you will be asked to wait outside, distancing yourself from others, until such time as invited in by a staff member. For our employees’ safety and for the safety of the general public at large we strongly recommend that all residents and visitors make an appointment. • Proper signage has been placed at the entrance to Town Hall to notify all patrons that a face covering is required and reminding everyone to maintain social distancing Page 1 of 4 MEMO from TM – New Normal • The entrance to Town Hall has marked out spaces on the floor with painter’s tape to ensure patrons are spaced at least 6 feet apart • Hand sanitizers have been provided and placed throughout Town Hall, Public Works and the Police Department • All offices and common areas are being deep cleaned daily with disinfectant • Employees who are feeling symptoms of COVID 19 or have had a direct exposure will not be permitted to return to work until they receive clearance from a medical doctor, or a negative test result • A limited number of testing kits are available for employees and residents who are high risk The Building Department created a COVID 19 Action plan that was disseminated to all construction projects and contractors by email on what would be expected from each site prior to opening on May 11, 2020. Those properties not in compliance would not be permitted to open. Building Department Measures: • Each Construction Site submitted an operational action plan for approval by the Town. These plans contained the required implementation of handwashing stations containing soap and water, additional sanitizing stations ( 60% alcohol based) for use by the workers, all workers are required to wear masks, additional Masks for anyone entering the site, temperature logs of the workers, and other criteria, in order to maintain a safe working environment and to protect our community. • Each site was given the opportunity to implement these plans on May 6, 7, and 8th of this month. • The Town appointed two COVID Compliance inspectors who were out driving the Town daily, checking on the progress of each site and submitting written status reports for each property and when in compliance was given an approval status. • Properties that received an approval of their action plan in place and an approved site inspection were permitted to resume work on the next Monday, May 11th. • Inspectors are out canvasing all construction projects in Town, Monday through Saturday making sure that all construction sites are in compliance with their plans and are following the Town’s guidelines in COVID 19 Action plan implemented by the department. • Anyone found on the property not to be in compliance, i.e.; not wearing masks, no washing station will be given a warning on the first infraction. Anyone found to have a second infraction would receive a $500.00 fine, and if a third infraction is found at the property the site will be closed for 5 days.
