During other business, a board member asked staff to check whether the county has a policy that prohibits wearing masks intended to hide a person's identity in the courthouse.
The chair asked staff to check with the county administrator, saying the concern was not about medical masks but masks used to conceal identity. Staff replied that several buildings have a policy against hiding identity in public areas of county buildings and agreed to confirm the county's policy and report back.
No formal change to courthouse policy was made during the recorded discussion; the matter was left for staff follow-up.
