The C
ity of Cullman continues to provide essential services – police, fire, emergency medical, water and sewer service, electricity – all operations deemed appropriate. Closing down everything is simply not an option for local governments. Conditions are different in every city and every community. You are going to see variations in policies throughout the Nation, state, counties and cities. The number of cases and the rapidly evolving knowledge about this virus and how it behaves will drive future decisions.
Significant business restrictions are in place statewide and all public gatherings and events are prohibited. The city is heeding all CDC and expert advice in the COVID-19 battle and is limiting people to people contact everywhere possible. We are taking every reasonable precaution. Recommendations include: Social distancing – staying 6 feet apart; washing hands; disinfecting common areas; closing public areas; banning business travel; limiting travel to food, medicine, medical care and other critical needs; sheltering in place when possible; preventing exposure potential where possible; and using common sense to protect yourselves are all encouraged.
Medical officials stress to call the Cullman Regional Medical Center’s hot line at 256-735-5530 if you have questions.
Thank you!
Mayor Woody Jacobs
