A couple of days ago, my county(placer) voted to rescind the local state of emergency. What this means is basically nothing. The main take away is that local officers cannot enforce anything. Masks, social distancing, etc. Places can still be reported to the state and should be following state guidelines.
During the board of supervisors meeting, where anti-mask and anti-vaxxers spoke, it was stated that the economic issues are far more important than the cases and deaths we have had.
Immediately following this vote, our local health official resigned.

She was ignored at every step of the way and the board of supervisors would bring in outside "experts" such as the anti-mask geniuses to get info while she was placed in a corner of the room and disregarded.
The confusion over this has restauraunts celebrating in the area. Like this place for example. Literally on video telling people to come on in and celebrate, and no masks are required.
This shit is absolutely disgusting. Here is another gem from earlier this year of a guy on my counties board.
