COVID-19 (2019 Novel Coronavirus) Updates

The COVID-19 situation is constantly evolving, and your City of Citrus Heights Staff and Officials continue to closely monitor updates from the Sacramento County Public Health Department and Office of Emergency Services. Our Staff is in constant contact with regional, state, and federal-level senior officials.
COVID-19 Counts as of April 6, 2020: 20 confirmed cases in Citrus Heights and 1 death. Opens in new window

Visit Sacramento County’s Website for up-to-date COVID-19 health information, including details about the Public Health Order for all individuals living in the County (including Citrus Heights) to stay at their place of residence, except for "Essential Activities, Essential Governmental Functions, or to operate Essential Businesses" at www.SacCounty.net/COVID-19/. This webpage also lists the current counted and confirmed COVID-19 cases, an FAQ on the Stay at Home Order, and information about what qualifies as an "Essential Business." If you would like to report a violation of the Public Health Order, please call 3-1-1 or (916) 875-4311.


On March 19, the City of Citrus Heights proclaimed a local state of emergency. While it may seem contradictory, this proclamation does not signify an increased risk to Citrus Heights residents. Rather, by proclaiming a local emergency, the City is taking important administrative action. "This proclamation allows our City potential access to additional aid and available resources — and ultimately assists us in ensuring the safety and well being of our community," said Citrus Heights Mayor Jeff Slowey.

In line with County and State recommendations, City Staff are postponing our own meetings, events, and gatherings, especially those that host high-risk populations at least till the end of April. Staff are contacting those affected directly, and updating our website accordingly. We will continue to publish City news related to Coronavirus on this page and recommend all residents visit the County website for COVID-19 directives. You can click here to sign up to receive email or text updates when new information is available from the County.
