The City of Wichita, Sedgwick County and other local officials announced on Tuesday an online portal for residents to report businesses in violation of Dr. Garold Minns latest health order. “While the focus of enforcement is to educate businesses about COVID-19 safety and to encourage best health practices, failure to comply with the local health order is a violation of County code and may result in the offending business receiving a citation and notice to appear in County Court,” the county said in a news release. “The penalty for any violation would be a fine.” Once a complaint is received and reviewed, the business may receive a notification letter from the Sedgwick County Health Department. Officials will begin an investigation and if a violation is confirmed, the business could receive a citation and a notice to appear in court. If no violation is found, there will be no further action.
