The Franklin County Public Health and Columbus Public Health Stay at Home Advisory goes into effect on November 20 at 6pm. Given our current COVID-19 circumstances, we recommend that all sports, extracurricular activities and entertainment events be suspended or cancelled at this time. This is not a mandate but is highly recommended.
Franklin County Public Health is requesting compliance officer information via survey to assist in streamlining information sharing.
Per the Director's Second Amended Sport Order issued on August 25, 2020, a compliance officer is required to be designated for sporting events to ensure that participants and spectators are in compliance with the COVID-19 standards specified in the order. In the case of an individual testing positive for COVID-19, compliance officers will serve as the local health department's point of contact for contact tracing purposes. For reference, the sports order is available here.
Per the Director’s that Provides Mandatory Requirement for Entertainment Venues issued on August 25, 2020, each entertainment venue shall designate, in writing and prior to an event, a compliance officer whose responsibility it is to ensure that the requirements of entertainment venue order are followed. For reference, the entertainment venue order is available here.
