From the Rochester COVID-19 Task Force: Voting in COVID times

In order to facilitate mail-in voting and limit risk and exposure to COVID-19, all Vermont registered voters should have receive their ballots in the mail and can vote by mail:
-- by dropping their ballot off at the town office before election day, or
-- by taking that ballot to vote in-person at the polling location on November 3.

If you do not bring your ballot with you to vote at the polling location, you will need to fill out an affidavit confirming that you are only voting once. If you have not received your ballot by October 7, call the Town Office to inquire.

The VT Secretary of State recommends anyone mailing in their ballot do so by October 24. After that date, you can drop it at the Town Office or deliver it to the polls by 7pm on election day.

Voting in Rochester on November 3 has been moved to the Rochester High School Building to accommodate social distancing.

Political signs will not be allowed to be placed in the ground or affixed to anything on the property of the polling place. Individuals can hold signs in a designated area near the entrance, respecting social distancing requirements and not impeding anyone from entering the polling place. ... See MoreSee Less

From the Rochester COVID-10 Task Force: Travel Guidance

With foliage season here, many Vermonters and their friends and families living elsewhere are looking to take those vacations put off at the outset of the pandemic. The state is doing its best to facilitate travel and tourism as safely as possible, but many parts of the country remain high-risk zones for the virus.

The Agency of Commerce and Community Development updates the quarantine travel map (accd.vermont.gov/covid-19/restart/cross-state-travel) every Tuesday. Please follow the state’s guidance when traveling or hosting visitors to ensure Vermont stays as safe as possible:

• Counties in the Northeast with fewer than 400 active COVID-19 cases per one million residents are eligible for quarantine-free leisure travel. The map indicates these counties in green. Other visitors have travel restrictions.
• While much of Maine is in green, five Maine counties are not, so Vermonters returning from those must quarantine. York County, for example, includes popular destinations like Kennebunkport and Kittery. Travel restrictions also apply to Nantucket and Norfolk County, where Boston is located.
• Vermonters traveling in from other locations or not in a personal vehicle must quarantine upon return.
• Residents from quarantine counties or from areas beyond the travel map must follow quarantine guidelines:

o Travelers arriving to Vermont in a personal vehicle may complete quarantine (14-day quarantine or a 7-day quarantine followed by a negative test) in their home state and enter Vermont without further restrictions.
o Travelers arriving to Vermont via public transportation (plane, train, bus) or from further than a direct car ride would allow may complete either a 14-day quarantine or a 7-day quarantine followed by a negative test in a Vermont lodging establishment or with friends and family (travelers must stay in their quarantine location for the duration of quarantine other than to travel to and from a test site).

• People traveling for essential purposes, including work, do not need to quarantine. Essential travel includes travel for personal safety, medical care, care of others, parental shared custody, for food, beverage or medicine, to attend preK-12 school if commuting daily, or to perform work for businesses that are currently allowed to operate.
• When you travel to Vermont, only stop when necessary (fuel, food or rest). When you stop, wear a face mask or covering, keep a 6-foot distance from others and wash your hands often. ... See MoreSee Less
