The North Country Chamber of Commerce is welcoming the announcement that Phase Three of the business re-opening process can begin TOMORROW in the North Country region.
All Phase Three businesses are reminded that their re-opening must follow state guidelines, including affirming on-line to the guidelines for their sector and creating and having available a COVID-19 safety plan for their operation. The affirmations and the templates for plans for Phase Three businesses can now be found on the Forward NY website, and for those who haven’t taken part in one or more of the Chamber’s safety training webinars, all of them can be accessed at our website at
northcountrychamber.com.
The North Country Chamber website continues to be a key online destination for finding information and links of all kinds related to the pandemic and re-opening, including access to our Daily Dose e-newsletter which is distributed Monday through Friday to almost 5,000 business and community leaders across our region and has become a go-to source of timely information and guidance.
