Corona Virus Fact Sheet
PA Department of Health
We at Paint Township want to share our concern and plans with our residents during the COVID-19 outbreak. The below information is a guideline we were provided and want to pass on. The governor’s proclamation directed governments across all levels to continue to provide essential services. The Pennsylvania State of Association of Township Supervisors (PSATS) recommends that township government remain open for business and functional, but may restrict access. Townships should practice social distancing and limit or cease offering non-essential services and events. Limit visitors by providing services online and on the phone, all bills to be paid at a drop box or behind a window, or provide other means to do business with the township without personal contact. While township government should remain open for business, where appropriate and possible, employees could be allowed to work from home. PSATS will continue to provide guidance for its members on this issue. Should there be any change in the current situation Paint Township will keep residents updated through the townships website and Nextdoor. Please practice proper hand hygiene, stay home if you are sick and keep a social distance to keep the virus from spreading. Please reach out to your neighbors and check on elderly family members who may need a helping hand. Thank you.
