When the City transitions to more in -person service hours, many employees will begin to implement their new telework schedules. This will not impact in -person services at City facilities, as telework plans have been approved by Supervisors and Directors to ensure continuity of in -person services when and where they are needed. The City will continue to provide many services and some programs remotely. 2021 Summer Special Event Planning: With summer quickly approaching, the City has begun planning for the management of public health protocols at various City sponsored special events, as well as City permitted events. Generally speaking, the City will work to balance the desires of the community in participating in beloved community events and the recommended public health protocols in place at the time of each event. In Level Clear, there are no restrictions on special events, with the exception of very large events (over 30,000 attendees) which are regulated under state guidance. At the time of drafting this Council Communication, facial covering orders remain in place for all indoor places of public accommodation in the City of Louisville and across Boulder County in certain settings. Touch -a -Truck: The Touch -a -truck event that typically takes place over Memorial Day weekend will not be held this year.
