Mayor Extends COVID-19 Order in Dubuque

As expected, Dubuque Mayor Roy Buol on Monday extended an order limiting the size of public gatherings and closing city buildings through at least May 4th. Buol also canceled the city’s Leisure Services Department spring recreational programs and Multicultural Family Center programs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The restrictions were set to end Sunday but have been revised after Gov. Kim Reynolds last week extended business and school closures and social distancing regulations through April 30th. While city buildings will be closed, city employees will continue working and will respond to citizens’ questions via phone or email.
