COVID-19
Latest Update: February 14, 2022
The town’s State of Emergency declaration was updated on February 14, 2022, rescinding the requirement for face coverings in town-owned facilities. (This includes Town Hall, the Halle Cultural Arts Center, John M. Brown Community Center, Public Works buildings, Public Safety Stations, and The Depot.) When visiting facilities, you may continue to choose to wear a mask. However, that is no longer a requirement.
Although we do encourage individuals to wear masks when groups of people not from the same household gather indoors, there is no mask mandate issued by the Town of Apex for facilities or other spaces that are not owned by the town. Individual businesses within town limits may decide to require masks.
The Town of Apex continues to follow the guidance provided by the CDC and direction given by the NC Governor.
