State vs. Local Orders

The California Coronavirus (COVID-19) Response website contains up-to-date information regarding Governor Newsom’s March 19th Stay at Home Executive Order. The website recently posted this clarification on the order:

How does this order interact with local orders to shelter in place? Does it supersede them?

This is a statewide order. Depending on the conditions in their area, local officials may enforce stricter public health orders. But they may not loosen the state’s order.

SRBX will continue to work with our local coalition of construction, development and business associations to present the case for consistency in local orders across the Greater Sacramento region. With a regional construction workforce engaged in important works for the health of the Region’s citizenry and economy, it is essential that local Counties, Municipalities and Agencies operate off the same page.

If your project is experiencing difficulty in securing permits, inspections or any other governmental approvals, please notify Tim Murphy or Damon Conklin at SRBX immediately.
