MarinRecovers and Zoom In Tomorrow!

Supervisor Katie Rice 

MarinRecovers

To all District 2 Residents,

With the May 4 modification to the Marin’s stay at home order, we are taking the first steps to safely and progressively reopen our economy and communities, recognizing that COVID-19 is present and will continue to be present and a threat for some time to come. The May 4 modifications also came in parallel with our public health officer and health care community’s assessment that we are close to having the tools/infrastructure (testing, contact tracing, surge capacity, monitoring capacity, community member compliance with social distancing) we need in place to manage the spread, contain outbreaks, protect our most vulnerable, and provide appropriate care for those who do become sick.

Read more below about Marin’s COVID-19 Recovery Plan including MarinRecovers.com and the launch of Marin Recovers Industry Advisors -- a partnership between Public Health, local government, business and community leaders to help develop guidelines for how various sectors could operate safely in COVID-19 environment.

Finally, an invitation to join me tomorrow, May 7, at 5pm for our second District 2 “Zoom-In.” I’ll start the session answering your questions coming in regarding the new Public Health Order and the Marin Recovers planning effort. Then I’ve invited Renee Goddard, Mayor of Fairfax, and Stephanie Hellman, Fairfax Councilmember to talk about how Fairfax is weathering COVID-19 and what their community is doing to support one another and look to the future. The Zoom will last about a half hour. Instructions for joining are at end of this newsletter. Hope you can join us!

MarinRecovers.com

The County of Marin, in collaboration with personnel from cities and towns across Marin, is excited to announce the launch of MarinRecovers.com. The website will connect Marin County residents, business owners, community leaders and public health professionals to collaborate on reopening the economy and community in a safe manner. The goal of MarinRecovers.com is to provide a mobile-optimized, centralized resource for all Marin residents and business owners to access recovery information, regardless of whether they live in a city, town or unincorporated Marin. Each municipality in Marin will contribute content for MarinRecovers.com so the website remains a rich resource through COVID-19 recovery.

In addition to providing an overview of recovery resources, the website outlines three stages of reopening the local economy and relaxing of shelter-in-place orders: 1) Slow the spread; 2) Sequential reopening under the Stay-at-Home Order; 3) End of the Stay-at-Home Order. Each stage of recovery has criteria that must be met before moving to the next phase to continue the successful mitigation of COVID-19 while building the infrastructure needed to move forward. A detailed recovery guidance document, the Marin County COVID-19 Recovery Plan, is available for download in English & Español.

MarinRecovers Industry Advisors

As a part of the MarinRecovers effort, The County of Marin, in partnership with local governments and businesses, is supporting a fast-paced effort to help businesses and organizations prepare for reopening by developing approaches that protect public health while meeting the needs of different business types with the launch of Marin Recovers Industry Advisors. The industry advisory groups will be comprised of local business leaders with expertise across 15 identified (to date) industries. They will work together to provide recommendations and guidelines for how an industry could operate in a COVID-19 environment in compliance with public health orders. Our industry advisor groups will also advise on educational and informational content to support successful implementation of operational plans for various industry sectors and continue to be a resource as we navigate this unprecedented and dynamic community challenge.

A key aspect of Marin Recovers industry advisory process is the ability for the public to provide input and feedback to the advisory groups who are leading the recovery effort through this link. If you are a business owner or operator and want to learn more, have input, and/or would like to provide feedback during this process, please connect to the advisory groups through this link.
