Press release from The City of Saline: Trick-or-Treat Information The City has received several inquiries from residents asking if Halloween Trick-or-Treat will take place this year in light of COVID-19. Halloween is not a City sanctioned event, but rather a nationally recognized holiday. Other than announcing the suggested hours (6-8 pm), the City has no further involvement. The City has no legal authority or basis to cancel Halloween or restrict the free movement of its residents. All residents who participate, however, should adhere to public health recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and the Washtenaw County Health Department. Be safe and operate common sense such as: WEAR A MASK; SOCIAL DISTANCE if not in the same household; Any household with a positive case or exposure should NOT participate; Any individuals with symptoms should NOT participate; and Any other guidance from public health officials. If your household chooses not to participate- TURN OFF YOUR PORCH LIGHT; and Trick-or-Treater's show respect by NOT visiting any home with their porch light off. We are several weeks away from the Halloween, therefore, please continue to watch for updates from the CDC, Health Department or public health officials. We hope this helps.
