Pursuant to the authority granted to me under New York State Executive Law, Section 24, in order to preserve public safety, I, Anthony Cardone, Town Supervisor of the Town of Monroe hereby declare a state of emergency in the Town of Monroe for a period of time beginning December 30, 2021 at 2:00 p.m and lasting until January 28, 2022 1:59 p.m., unless otherwise extended by an addition order.
I hereby direct all departments of the Town of Monroe, to take steps necessary to protect life and property, public infrastructure, and provide such emergency assistance deemed necessary.  This state of emergency has been declared due to the ongoing COVID-19 / Coronavirus Disease 2019, which was initially declared a pandemic by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared this disease a world Pandemic on March 11, 2020, the Governor of the State of New York declared a state of emergency for New York State on March 07, 2020  and on March 13, 2020 the President of the United States filed an Emergency Declaration in regard to COVID-19.  Subsequently, a recent surge in COVID cases and COVID variants has resulted in new State of Emergency declarations by the Governor of the State of New York, including Executive Order 11 of 2021 (November 26, 2021). This emergency is of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant that certain emergency protective measures to be taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic emergency to protect the health, safety, and welfare of all the Town residents. As a result of this ongoing pandemic the Town may need to take actions to suspend local laws, policies and regulations in order to respond to such pandemic/State of Emergency and Local Emergency Order will be issued as necessary to do so and to ensure the public safety, public property or life, health, and safety of residents require immediate action. These conditions threaten the public safety of the citizens of the Town of Monroe.
