How to Prepare for Reopening
Cleaning and Disinfecting Guidelines
As reopening guidelines start to take effect, we must practice physical distancing and other daily habits to reduce our risk of exposure to the virus. To keep our community safe, the Center for Disease Control issued a three-step guideline to cleaning and disinfecting public spaces, workplaces, businesses, schools, and homes.

Help Save a Life
National Stop the Bleed Day
Learning how to stop life threatening bleeding can help save lives. A person can die in as little as five minutes if nothing is done to stop life threatening bleeding. That’s why the City supports efforts to include bleeding control kits in Weston government and public facilities, schools, as well as many businesses. Our efforts also include educational opportunities for the public to learn about the tools contained in the bleeding control kits, how to use them, and to perform lifesaving bleeding control skills. These efforts better prepare the public to serve as immediate responders if the need should arise. Although in-person classes are temporarily suspended, we encourage you to review the video on the tools in the bleeding control kit and how to use them.

Water Safety: Check the Pool First
Children are curious and can slip out of sight from adult supervision. If a child is missing, check the pool first. The more barriers you have in place, such as, door alarms and pool latches around the pool can help keep your child safe. And, please remember to remove any toys from the pool when you are finished swimming for the day.
