COVID-19 update

For 14 straight days, Dallas County has reported 1,000+ positive COVID-19 cases a day. As of July 14, Addison has had a total of 139 positive COVID-19 reported cases since the end of March and no deaths. The Dallas County COVID-19 dashboard, which is updated each Tuesday and Friday, allows you to filter cases by zip code and city.

On Thursday, July 16, Dallas County announced that public and private K-12 schools must push back their in-person start dates to after September 7. Before September 8, schools can hold classes online. Teachers and school administrators can conduct their classes on campus as long as they wear face coverings and maintain social distancing while in their buildings, school-sponsored events including clubs, sports and academic competitions, cannot take place until on-campus classes are allowed.

As a reminder, the Executive Order issued by Governor Greg Abbott on July 2 requiring all Texans to wear a face covering over the nose and mouth in public spaces remains in effect.
