Public Health Announces Forward Dane Plan & Releases New Order

Public Health Madison and Dane County has mapped out its Forward Dane Plan for reopening Dane County.

The first step is a preparation phase, or Safe Reopen phase, followed by three additional reopening phases, each with gradually less restrictive criteria. It also includes action steps by sector to make sure businesses and organizations are ready for reopening as soon as it's safe to move to the next phase.

In addition to the metrics that will guide reopening, Forward Dane gives an overview of what requirements will be in place for businesses and organizations during each reopening phase. The first step is a Safe Reopen or "prepare" order, followed by three additional phases, each with gradually less restrictive criteria.

Read the full press release, which includes the order that goes into effect tomorrow, May 19.
