“While we understand that these changes might be frustrating and inconvenient, especially with the pending holiday season, we can’t ignore the current trend of infection within our community. Right now, the safety of our residents and employees must be our top concern,” said Sterling Heights Mayor Michael Taylor. “Since limiting contact with others continues to be the only effective defense to the spread of COVID-19, we feel these temporary changes are our best bet at reversing the current trend and preventing further spread of the virus. As always, we can’t thank our residents enough for their ongoing patience and cooperation during these unprecedented times. Between now and the end of the year, we will continue to closely monitor the situation and update residents when normal operations can resume.”
