The City of Bloomington is exploring the possibility of creating a face mask mandate to curb the spread of COVID-19.

At Monday night’s Bloomington City Council meeting, Alderperson Jenn Carrillo said she would like city staffers to present some options to get tougher on those who don’t wear face masks or practice social distancing.

Deputy City Manager Billy Tyus said staff is looking at various options that might include mandatory mask use.
