PROVO, Utah (AP) — County commissioners in Utah postponed a meeting Wednesday where they were expected to discuss mask mandates after people packed the room and ignored social distancing guidelines. Fox-13 reports that the Utah County commissioners cited public safety concerns as the reason for abruptly canceling the meeting. Utah County Commissioner Bill Lee had proposed writing a letter to the county’s health director, directing him to ask state officials for a “compassionate exemption” from the mandate. A vote on that was postponed. Video footage shows the meeting was packed with people who opposed the mandate, very few of whom were wearing masks.
