Subject:Please consider making mask-wearing mandatory

Dear Bozeman County Commission,
As a resident of Gallatin County, I am writing to ask you to please, please consider makingmask-wearing mandatory in Bozeman.
Bozeman is on many a top-ten list of Summer 2020 travel lists during the time of
COVID. Sadly, it's really clear that voluntary mask-wearing is not prevalent. It hard enoughfor adults to stick to voluntary proactive measures, let alone younger kids and teens!
While mask-wearing is just one protective measure, it seems like a very simple one that by all
accounts, reduces transmission, and hopefully allows our businesses to stay open so that wecan preserve any economic gains while not putting our citizens and guests at risk.
I hope you'll consider making masks mandatory to protect our community's health, economy,
and the potential of our kids getting to go back to school in the fall.
Thank you, Jackie Johnston Swanson
