The Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office on Friday said that deputies
will be enforcing the county’s new shelter-in-place order and urged residents
against congregating at local beaches and parks.
The county’s new order, issued Tuesday and expiring May 3, prohibits
any public or private gatherings outside of residents’ immediate household.
Violation of the order is punishable by a misdemeanor charge
that could result in a fine, imprisonment or both, the sheriff’s office said Friday.
Sheriff’s deputies will be patrolling and enforcing the
order through a Beaches and Parks Contact Team at county beaches and parks.
The sheriff’s office also said deputies and corrections
officers at the county jails will wear N95 masks “while supplies
last.”
