Tarrant County Judge Glen Whitley on Tuesday, Feb. 23, extended the county’s mask mandate until at least May 25, 2021. The county commissioners also voted unanimously to extend the declaration of disaster until the same date, which allows Whitley to put the mask order in place. The Order also notes that social distancing protocols should still be followed; at least six feet from others whenever possible. 

The declaration of disaster was first enacted on March 13, 2020, when the virus first hit the county.
