AVONDALE ESTATES — Avondale Estates Mayor Jonathan Elmore is warning residents that if they don’t follow the city’s coronavirus guidelines, more aggressive actions will need to be taken.
“Avondale Estates is a close knit and very social community,” Elmore wrote in a letter to resident. “Staying at home is causing us all cabin fever. However, if our community does not diligently follow guidelines, we may need to enact more restrictive actions for everyone’s protection.”
Elmore gave these guidelines for residents to follow:
1. Stay at home as much as possible.
