Hotline set up to report non-essential businesses

Courtesy of San Benito County:

In continued efforts to “flatten the curve” and gain compliance to the current “Shelter-in-Place” order, San Benito County, the City of Hollister and the City of San Juan Bautista are going to share enforcement and reporting resources to educate non-essential businesses in the county and cities that still may be open.

Compliance is the goal. However, citations and other administrative remedies could be employed if voluntary compliance measures are unsuccessful. 

Please call the hotline at (831) 636-4113 to report a non-essential business operating in violation of the Order to “Shelter-in-Place,” contact the anonymous enforcement line and include business name and address. 

TIPS TO STAY SAFE: 

Please remember to use good hygiene by washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.

When using alcohol based hand sanitizer, wash you’re hands until they are completely dry.

Avoid touching you mouth, nose and face.

Please practice social distancing and stay at least 6 feet away from people you may come in contact with.

If you feel sick please quarantine yourself to prevent the possibility of infecting others. If your condition worsens seek medical attention from your primary doctor.
