As there is no legislation that is forcing self-isolation, the Brockville Police are asking local businesses to help them prevent overnight camping and screening people before they enter stores.
The Brockville Police will assign a COVID-19 liason officer who will reach out to businesses and provide protection.
They can also patrol a businesses’ lot if they need it.
Areas where campers are staying are private property and the police will need to be directed by the property owner to take legal action.
The Brockville Police will continue to work with all levels of government and local businesses to rectify the situation.
