Face Coverings in Public Spaces

Face coverings are no longer required in public indoor spaces. For City of Asheville buildings, we will no longer require face coverings. However, public health officials still strongly recommend wearing them especially in crowded indoor spaces.

To be clear, the public will no longer be required to wear face coverings in City of Asheville buildings but will be encouraged to wear them.
