All Puslinch Township Facilities And Buildings Remain Closed To Public

The COVID-19 situation continues to change rapidly, and as a Township, we are doing our
best to adapt how we conduct business and serve our community, while protecting the safety of our
staff and residents. Township officials are working closely with Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health to respond to the situation.

The Township relies heavily on the advice and information provided by our federal, provincial and local
public health professionals. As a result, the following closures remain in effect to May 31, 2020. The
decision to extend closures and cancellations will be continually reviewed, in conjunction with direction from the Province and guidance from Wellington-Dufferin Guelph Public Health, to determine if an earlier opening is possible or if a further extension is required.

• All Township facilities and buildings remain closed to the public.
• Based on the advice of Public Health, all outdoor play structures and sports fields remain closed. Unless directed otherwise by provincial officials, open spaces in our parks remain open and the
  public should continue to physical-distance themselves while using these spaces. Failure to
  abide by the physical distancing requirements will result in closure of these spaces.
