Having tried more than a month of education, the Hays Police Department will now give tickets to violators of the city’s mask ordinance. “For the most part we’ve gotten great feedback and cooperation, but there are some who just refuse to comply,” said Hays Police Chief Don Scheibler. “I’m not sure it’s fair for this business to lower the number of people they can have inside their business, while this business just packs them in.” The ordinance originally went into effect for people 8 and older on July 27 and expired Aug. 31. The city commissioners last week voted to extend the ordinance until Oct. 5. The commissioners called for enforcement.
