(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission has voted to keep the county's senior citizens centers open but will require masks and other measures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Commission took the action when they met Tuesday.
County Aging Administrator Peggy Wood recommended the Commission close the senior centers out concern for COVID-19.
The Commission will re-evaluate their decision in two weeks.
Wood informed Commissioners the Doniphan County Kitchen is closed for a period of 14 days due to the coronavirus.
Commission Chairman Thad Geiger voiced concern with the Aging Department and Kitchen not having a backup plan in place to continue the meals on wheels program.
Wood said she is formulating a plan with local school districts to continue the program.
