Hillsborough County Extends Local State Of Emergency Through Oct. 21

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FL. – Hillsborough County’s state of local emergency enacted in response to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic is extended for another seven-day period.

Today, Hillsborough County Administrator Bonnie Wise signed an extension of the declaration under authority authorized by the County’s Emergency Management Ordinance and the Board of County Commissioners.

The extension will be in effect through Oct. 21. A state of local emergency can be in effect for only seven days, unless rescinded or extended.

The emergency declaration gives the County Administrator and emergency managers the ability to quickly take certain actions to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the community, and provides a path for federal reimbursement of certain expenses, such as the County’s COVID-19 vaccination efforts.

  1. This COVID-19 is the biggest government bull (scam) in the history of are country, used to divert/control/cause chaos. these D.C. democrats need to be charged/prosecuted. They couldn’t except the cure President Trump came up with , that proved to work and is forcing ones that are killing adults/children lock them up and, put the real President the one that won the election back in the WHITE HOUSE and, the faker in prison where he should have been for all the criminal acts he has been involved in.
