In an effort to provide protection for consumers and businesses during the pandemic, Sitka’s City Planning Department and the Sitka Chamber of Commerce have created Sitka’s COVID Conscious Business (CCB) Program.
The goal of the program is to help businesses create a safe environment for consumers.
Sitka Planning Director Amy Ainslie is glad that businesses have started joining the free program.
“The one thing I’ve taken away from being a part of this program is how genuinely impressed I am with the business community of Sitka,” Ainslie said during Sitka Chamber’s Winter Speaker Series, KCAW reported. “How people have stepped up to make the necessary changes we need to keep the community safe. So, what we want to do is support and recognize the businesses that are really following best practices, putting in a lot of extra work, and at times making sacrifices to keep businesses operating in this environment.”
Information dissemination is one of the benefits that organizations can have if they join Sitka’s COVID Conscious Business Program.
Businesses who are interested in joining the program can visit the program’s website to learn more.
