TEQUESTA, Fla. — The Village of Tequesta is implementing a new program to help stop the spread of the coronavirus.

On Tuesday, the village manager implemented "wipe out" in efforts to keep the work environment clean and safe.

Public works staff bought Lysol wipes and hand sanitizer and delivered it to every village employee.

Each day at 8:30 a.m. or at shift change, all employees are directed to spend five minutes wiping down office areas including phones, desk, common spaces, printers, door knobs, arm rests and more.

The village is also encouraging employees to watch a video that the fire chief and his staff created about the coronavirus.
