Governor Cooper Announces NC will begin a Modified Stay at Home Order

Governor Roy Cooper and NCDHHS Secretary Mandy Cohen announced that North Carolina will begin a Modified Stay at Home Order after a rapid increase in North Carolina’s key COVID-19 trends. Executive Order 181, which requires people to stay at home between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., takes effect Friday, December 11 and will be in place until at least January 8, 2021.

• The Order requires restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, personal care businesses and more to close at 10 pm. Travel to and from work; to obtain food, medical care, fuel or social services; or to take care of a family member is exempted. Read more in the Frequently Asked Questions.
• Secretary Cohen also provided an update on North Carolina’s COVID-19 County Alert System map. The number of red counties (critical community spread) has more than doubled since November 23, up to 48 red counties from 20 red counties. There are now 34 orange counties (substantial community spread), as compared to 42 orange counties from the previous report. With today’s report, more than 80 percent of the state’s counties fall into the red or orange tier.

Nominations are now being accepted for North Carolina’s 2021 Governor’s Volunteer Service Award. Volunteers in Dare County who have given a substantial amount of their time and talent to assist others in the community through outstanding volunteer service can be nominated for this award.  

Any person, group or business from the public, nonprofit sector or private sector serving Dare County can be nominated. Nominations will be submitted to the county award coordinator, who will present the nominations to a committee that will perform a review of the nominees. This committee will then select the top 10 volunteers for Dare County.

Nominations can be submitted online at www.darenc.com/governorsaward. Tips for writing an effective award nomination and more information are also available on this page.
