A local “State of Emergency” Declaration has been made in both Houghton and Keweenaw counties, in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
By doing so, each county can request assistance from the state, and allows for eligibility to access potential disaster assistance, should it become available.
It also highlights how seriously Houghton and Keweenaw counties are taking the outbreak.
Both counties continue to work with the Western Upper Peninsula Health Department, and both counties are also stressing that residents follow CDC guidelines and executive orders from Governor Whitmer.
